I've made a free pattern and tutorial available for this project on my blog: hello-refabulous.blogspot.com/2012/12/diy-teapot-trivet-a...
Enjoy!
Made from mostly reclaimed fabrics, layered with craft fleece and Insul-Bright. The colors are awful in this photo due to poor lighting (sorry!) and are really much richer in person.
It was too late in the day to shoot outside. So, I looked around inside. There are lots of things that don't like much when viewed with our everyday life mindset. But when you look at things with a photographer's mindset, and sometimes up close, everyday things can be interesting -- even fascinating. I'm not saying this trivet was fascinating, but I liked the image it presented with the color, shadows and shape. (Trivet Hibiscus closeups DSC_4166.jpg)
This is the foundation paper pieced hexagon trivet from Ayumi Takahashi's awesome first book, Patchwork, Please. However, because I wanted to use a single Kei kerchief girl as my center, mine is more coaster size. I photocopied the pattern at 100% instead of enlarging, and then drew two extra rounds of triangles to make the center smaller. This is 3 1/2" per side. I s'pose one made according to the directions is 5" or so.
The white row, the binding, and the teal text print are all from Allison Glass' new line of fabrics called Sunprints. All of the other fabrics except for the pink one with small red circles are from Lecien's Old New 30s collection. Thanks to a dear friend for sending them to me! I hope she feels I did something worthy with them :))
now that cooler weather is here, i'm eating more hot things, and decided to make a trivet!

I Love Ramen
I didn't pay enough attention to the Cooking With Mama set while it was still reasonably priced, so now I have to keep paying large sums of money for the sets. Yuck.
Anyway, I like this set. I like the little pig face pieces (they're loose) in the bowl, I like the open can of corn with the loose piece that goes in the spoon, the pig face trivet, the chopsticks, the teeny pig on the end of the spoon, just all the pieces. I guess spending the money is worth it just to get a set of Re-ment that makes me this happy.
Trivet design from Patchwork, Please!

Inspired by the Coiled Fabric Bowl article in March/April 2007 issue of Fons & Porter's "Love of Quilting" magazine.
This trivet, passed down to me from my mother and grandmother, hangs on my kitchen wall.
