Today’s feature is from Suzanne with a free sewing tutorial for a Heat Resistant Curling Iron Bag:
When we travel I do my hair just as we are leaving. I hate having to put the hot curling iron in the luggage. So once I became interested in sewing again I looked for a pattern to make something that will keep the heat from ruining anything. Saw where someone has a patent on some kind of curling iron bag, also saw advertisements for bags selling for $20 and up - didn’t even look.
I tried to modify instructions from a tote bag I found on line but just couldn’t get it to do what I wanted with two different fabric patterns and with the heat resistant lining. After trying four times and having all four not being what I was looking for I had an “Eureka” moment. So here it is - my first pattern. The pattern assumes people already know how to sew.
Materials Needed Include:
- 28″ piece of ribbon, lace, cord or whatever you like
- Thread
- Permanent fabric adhesive
- Cotton Fabric
- Heat resistant lining
Nice project and perfect for toting around a curling iron when traveling!

I made a quick, cute curling iron holder by stitching two potholders, each with one heat-resistant side, into a pocket (shiny side in). Voila! The potholders even have a hanging loop already attached! In a pinch you can slip the curling iron into an oven mitt.
