 DIY-Amish Folded Star Quilted Hot Pad/ Pot Holder Video Tutorial

DIY-Amish Folded Star Quilted Hot Pad/ Pot Holder Video Tutorial

Being a Blogger I have the awesome opportunity to follow some of the best in the business when it comes to creating. These people are “artist’s” in the truest nature of the word. One of those people is Crouton Jacks and his Crouton Crafts. I stumbled across him 2 years ago and have been a fan ever since. He’s truly creative and one of the nicest men I know.

It’s an honor for me to call him my “Friend” as well as a mentor.

Crouton Jacks  is also one of the best teachers. His style is calming. I say that because when I am trying to learn a new stitch. A pattern, make a cake or just watching so I understand the steps. I prefer his way. I’m a visual learner and sometimes I  have to watch the video over and over to create my project. His style is calm and relaxed!! His latest video is a How To: Amish Folded Star Quilted Hotpad / Pot Holder Tutorial is Wonderful. 

These Hotpad/Pot Holders would be perfect for Mother’s Day, Christmas, Housewarming Gifts or I’m making mine for myself 🙂

I hope you love this  DIY-Amish Folded Star Quilted Hot Pad/ Pot Holder Video Tutorial as much as I did.

We love to see pictures if you make this yourself 🙂 You may just be featured on Little House Tips.

If there is something you would like to learn. Please feel free to drop us a comment or email. We will do our best to get it up for you.

Thank you so much, Crouton Crackerjacks & Crouton Crafts

    I am always tempted to try this type of quilting project but I know that I would be addicted and end up spending hours on making so much. Nice work!

    I am in the middle of making one of these right now! His instructions are great. I love both of his YouTube channels. He seems to be into the same things I am – cooking, crochet, and quilting…only, he’s good at it! I’m learning lots from him and think it’s fun. Not sure how he wrangles those pieces of fabric by fabric pressing only. I have to steam iron the triangles and stomp those suckers flat before I can do anything with them.
    I’m still kind of technically challenged in finding info I need. Is there any way to contact him to ask a question or two? I just bought an old Singer and it looks like he has one too.
    Thanks!

    P.S. – this whole website is great! Lots of fun stuff here! I want to try Water Kefir!

    Just visited Amish country in Lancaster, PA and saw some of these quilted pot holders. I have made them in the past and am so glad to visit your site and get a refresher course on making them. Thank you so much for sharing the tutorial.

    Do you know how I can contact your friend, Crouton Jack? I have watched his video for his crochet puzzle ball over and over and over and over and can’t get the second row to match what he is demonstrating or his written instructions. I’ve crochet for many, many years, and this has me totally frustrated. I can’t find anywhere on YouTube where I can contact him. Another viewer left basically the same issue asking for clarification, and there hasn’t been a response. Thank you for your helP!!
