2011 Potholder Swap

potholder swap 2011

I finally got around to getting pictures of the potholders I made for the 2011 Potholder Swap. Of course I made some mandala potholders, they really are my favorite to make! I had a lot of fun putting colors together. There may be some duplicates made in the future!

I've seen a couple other people on ravelry making mandalas for the swap as well, I love to see all the different color combinations people come up with! I hope I end up with one of them when I get my potholders.

  13. your potholders are so pretty! they look great together--i can't believe you're going to separate them.

    i've been thinking of you lately because you inspired me to make the "tried to look pretty" potholder. it's coming along well so far.
