Three Petal Dresden Hot Pads For A Cheerful Kitchen

Three Petals And Endless Fabric Possibilities.

This simplified version of the classic Dresden design uses just three petals, making it a quick and easy project that still captures the charm of traditional quilting. Each petal is cut using a Dresden wedge template and sewn together to form a rounded fan shape, rather than a full circle. With only three pieces to join, the project comes together in no time, making it perfect for beginners

A Dresden hot pad is a charming mix of function and traditional quilt design. Inspired by the classic Dresden Plate quilt block, this project turns small fabric scraps into something useful and decorative for the kitchen.

Try mixing bold prints or coordinating seasonal fabrics for a cheerful hot pad. The variety of prints makes this a wonderful scrap-busting project where you can mix florals, polka dots, or holiday fabrics for a playful look.

The three-petal Dresden hot pad so versatile and any fabric would look great, but especially when sewn in coordinating kitchen fabrics or festive prints.

Add a small loop for hanging or pair it with matching tea towels for a thoughtful handmade gift.

The pattern can be found in Annies Pot Holders For All Seasons Pattern Book, which includes twenty fun pot holder patterns.
