Vintage Panholder Patterns - Free Download
Here’s a fun freebie download, it’s a set of six different panholders (or potholders) from a loose sheet I had stashed away in my vintage patterns. I believe they’re from the 1940s-1950s.
Some are straight sewing, others involve a bit of embroidery and some involve a bit of appliqué work–there’s something for everyone in this lot!
The six different pattern styles:
- A round panholder with a pair of singing birds on one side and sleeping birds on the other (how cute!)
- Oven Mitt: Too many Cooks Spoil the Broth
- Oven Mitt: The way To a Man’s Heart Is Thru His Stomach
- Coffee Pot: Old-time style (look for the little spot by the handle to cut out)
- Tea Kettle: Old-time style (look for the two spots by the top handle to cut out)
- Butterfly
You can download the patterns here: Vintage Panholder Patterns (pdf). You’ll find the instructions for the set on the first page.
These won’t print off true to original size, just enlarge them to whatever size you like. Enjoy!
