Tutorial doubleface potholders „Rabbit“ for easter

Easter and spring are coming: Potholder in doubleface technique with four different bunny silhouettes. With this technique, you can combine the motifs as you like.

If you like needlework and also want to try a new technique, this tutorial is for you. The doubleface technique is not difficult to learn, but offers the possibility to create truly individual potholders. Whether for yourself or as a (Easter-)gift for a loved one is up to you.

The special thing about these potholders is that you can create two completely different sides for one potholder. The technique also makes the potholders nice and thick and therefore insulating excellently. At the same time, you save on sewing the threads - except for the finish - as they are worked directly into the potholder.
