I made 10 of these bowls for co-workers in one night! Theyre such an easy project and make great gifts! I
paired my bowls with a soup mix and a cute printable gift tag from Make It Yourself magazine
(https://makeityourselfmagazine.les.wordpress.com/2015/09/make-in-multiples.pdf).

Its so fun to choose fabrics for this project! Since the bowls are reversible, its important that the fabrics
coordinate.

Ill be enjoying warm soups and chili all winter! The bowl is perfect for reheating soups in the
microwave (its microwave safe!), and for protecting hands when the chili is hot out of the slow cooker.
