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.
Here's the trivet in use. Well, technically, it's only posed like it's in use-- because there's nothing in our little saucepan. But, if we put some interesting curry dish in the pan, you'd be checking it out instead of admiring the trivet. Hence, empty is the way to go. The trivet is sitting on our dining table; that explains the funny colors below it.

Vintage 1959 Pyrex casserole dish 'Lucky in Love'. Small, round white casserole dish (1 qt.) with two handles decorated with a green grass garden of pink hearts and green four leaf clovers (shamrocks). Original white glass lid is recessed in the middle and can be used as a trivet for the dish.

One of my favourite things in life - Charity Shop and Boot Sale hunting. Thought I would show you some of my recent finds - hope you like!
I rescued this pretty little quilted block from a friend's trash can! I thought it would make a sweet mug rug so I finished it with cute binding, embroidery and a cupcake tag :o)
Done a few years ago on a 6"x6" ceramic tile. All various glass bits. I use it at work to hold my cups on.
Meet the Gotokuneko! Some call it the Cat of Five Virtues, but that’s a mistranslation – it is the Trivet Cat. Gotokuneko is very similar to Gotokuyashi, in that both are three-eyed furry creatures with a trivet on their head. And now I must explain this to people who don’t know their way around a kitchen – a trivet is a piece of metal framework used to suspend a heated pot or pan or plate. This figure is wearing one like a circlet.
Gotokuneko is a type of Nekomata – cat-demon. Note how it even has twin tails like most Nekomata. But whereas most Nekomata eat people, steal souls, or raise zombies, Gotokuneko is content to blow fire through his bamboo pipe to lightly stoke fireplace flames that have gone out. He likes the fire, but he is peaceful about it and pretty helpful when he sees a dead fire and a cold home. Cat of Five Virtues or not, Gotokuneko is really nice to have around!
I'm glad to be able to send a mosaic home! :)
I put this in the mail today to the organizers of "In the Pink" art silent auction in my home town of Muncie, Indiana. The proceeds from the silent auction will go to help support breast cancer research. Hubby made the wood frame and put feet on it as well as a hanger so that it is versatile.
We made trivets similar to this last Christmas for our grown children. Now we have to think of something for this year! :)
Zakka Patchwork, Please book project, was meant to be bigger but I could not get my scanner to enlarge to 200% however this works perfectly for under my new iced tea containers. I made several "learning" mistakes with this, so its just as well it was pieced together with scraps!
