    You're welcome! I made a bunch of potholders that were bound with regular binding, and after that, I thought "not again".

    I also had a potholder given to me that was similarly constructed, so that helped me figure it out.

    I usually make mine the sandwich way - this looks so much easier. Thanks.

    Notice you don't put loops - there was resistance when I proposed this to my group but when no one could say they actually hung up their potholders we've been going 'loopless' ever since.

    Wonderful tutorial. I can use this to teach my gradeschool niece how to sew. This is perfect with all the pics. Thank you

    Yes, occasionally when I give people potholders they mention that there aren't any loops, but most people put thier potholders in a drawer, so I don't know what the big deal is... Anyway, loops are just another step, so I don't do them.
