Today's small DIY is one happy oven glove. I still had so much thermolam (link to company) left, that I though I'd make some oven gloves. Yes, I did make an pot holder just last week or so but to be honest: we don't use potholders. We use this kind of oven glove.
So I sat down and made a quick pattern, which you can download (including short instructions) here (it's a pdf). The pattern has added seam allowance (the thick black line), about 1/2 inch.

It took about 2 hours to make them and I've had all th necessary material at hand. The green "grip area" is made from wool felt, about 2,5mm thickness.
Here are some pictures from the "making of"

| inside cotton layer quickly quilted on one side of thermolam |

| all layers pinned, right sides together. |
Alternative usage for the pattern:
A hand puppet (just add eyes on the top and maybe some wool as hair and if you want a tongue hanging from the mouth).

| this is not my arm. :) |
Cost:
No additional cost, I had all the material at hand.
If you can get the exact quantities, it would be about 5 Euros, I guess.
