Use these foundations to make additional hot pads in the design of a tomato, a watermelon slice or an eggplant. Complete directions for constructing the veggie hot pads, along with patterns for an ear of corn and a pumpkin, appear in Quiltmaker Sept/Oct '08 (No. 123). If you cannot find this issue at your local quilt shop, order back issues on our site.

Be sure your printed patterns match the measurements published in Quiltmaker. If your pattern sizes are different, check your print settings to make sure there is no page scaling—you should print the page at 100% or actual size.
