Who says kitchen essentials have to be boring? If you’re tired of plain, scorched mitts, these heart-shaped oven mitts and pot holders from Emel’s Handicraft are the perfect way to bring some personality to your stovetop. This free pattern and tutorial show you how to transform standard cotton fabric and insulating batting into a matching set that is as functional as it is adorable.
The project includes two versatile sizes: the oven mitts finish at 7.8″ by 9.4″, while the larger pot holder measures 8.6″ by 10.2″. Because the construction is so straightforward, they make a fantastic “palette cleanser” project between bigger sewing tasks. Whether you’re sewing a set for a friend’s birthday or just want to treat your own kitchen to a little love, these quilted hearts are a sweet reminder that handmade items can be both pretty and practical.
