(Part of the Hard Candy Christmas Pattern Collection)
Some Christmas memories feel stitched right into us—the ones with red felt stockings, cinnamon simmering on the stove, and the kind of old holiday specials that played in the background while everyone wrapped gifts on the living-room floor. That’s where this Poinsettia Potholder pattern comes from. I wanted something simple and classic, the kind of red-and-white star block that feels like it’s been in the family forever—even if you just made it last night with a cup of cocoa nearby.
The Poinsettia Potholder is part of the Hard Candy Christmas Collection, inspired by those cozy, slightly-faded Christmas seasons from the ’80s and ’90s—bright candies in glass dishes, handmade ornaments, and that soft, warm glow everything seemed to have back then. Whether you’re whipping up a single potholder for your own kitchen or sewing a trio for gifting, this little block brings all that vintage joy back into the room.
This pattern makes a sweet, quick holiday project—traditional, scrappy, giftable, and full of charm.
