Some little while back I posted about hexie log cabin pot holders. This little scrap buster is a follow-on to that idea.
The problem: the base of the mixer might scratch the kitchen counters.
Solution:
The mixer mat.
I measured the base of the mixer, which didn't actually fit on the larger hexie log cabin trivet already made, and went to the stash for fabrics. As y'all can see, a fair proportion of the red prints on hand also include greens. It wasn't intentionally designed as a Christmas season mat, I just wanted a bright red themed mat to bring some brightness to the room.
The batting inside it is the same InsulBrite that was used in the pot holders...it was in stash. 😉
The binding is a foldover binding of the reverse side fabric.
This project is somewhat of a rough draft, there may be more mixer mats made in the near future. Possibly a spring themed one? Or a Valentines one?
