Happy New Year to my sewing friends!!!  I don’t know about you but I was so excited to get started on a completely new project!  I recently revamped a vintage metal kitchen rolling cart by painting it and updating it for my coffee station in my kitchen and I love how it came out so much.  However, I have been wanting a waterproof mat under my coffee pot and decided that now is the time to make one and try out the Thermoweb HeatnBond Iron-On Vinyl and see what I think about it!  And guess what?  I absolutely love how it worked in this project and how nice it looks on my coffee station.  I think these would make amazing placemats as well!

You’ll need the following supplies for this project:

I used 2.5 inch strips of fabric that I cut to 2.5 inch squares.  But a 2.5 inch Charm Pack would work great for this project as well.

I’ve written a free pattern and tutorial that you can download HERE.  It has all the instructions, tips, suggestions and it steps you through the process of working with HeatnBond Iron-On Vinyl.

You’ll especially love the tutorial on how to get the perfectly lined up patchwork squares by using a great trick with HeatnBond Fusible Liteweight Interfacing.  It is a game changer!  So click HERE to print my tutorial and let’s get one made!

I’m really happy that I FINALLY made this mat for my coffee station!  I’ve been using it for a couple weeks now and it really does just wipe clean!  I love how simple it was to work with the HeatnBond Iron-On Vinyl and I’m excited to try more projects using it!

 

I'm Dori, from Tennessee. I don't remember a time in my life that I didn't enjoy crafting, sewing, and creating in all forms. I live in a farmhouse that my husband and I built way up on the hill of our Tennessee farm! Nothing brings about the desire to create like looking out my studio window!
