The Step-by-Step DIY HopeSaC Thermal Cooker Pattern, instructs in a easy to follow video and/or picture presentation, each step in making a HopeSaC. From choosing the fabric and supplies to assembly of the completed HopeSaC Thermal Cooker. Everything you need to know. There are so many reasons to make your own HopeSaC Thermal Cooker. Some want to utilize this cooking method for everyday meal preparation, potlucks, family reunions and holiday cooking, while others want to maximize their emergency preparedness plan with this slow cooking/retained heat cooking method. The HopeSaC thermal cooker was designed early one morning as I was contemplating a humanitarian trip to Mexico where I wanted to teach the principles of retained heat cooking. I was trying to figure out how to make a thermal cooker affordable, efficient and convenient for the women I would be teaching. As it turned out, the HopeSaC thermal cooker proved to be much more, offering service opportunities as well as self reliance and economic development possibilities.

I don't know why thermal cookers are not more mainstream in the US... They are quite popular in Asia and other parts of the world. They conserve energy used in cooking by utilizing an insulated outer pot that holds an inner pot that you heated to boiling for a short time on top of the stove. The insulation keeps the inner pot and its' contents hot for hours as the food continues to cook from the residual heat inside. Basically, it is a crock pot without having to keep it plugged in. But those sold online are quite expensive. A 1.5 gallon pot on Amazon will set you back a cool $200, such as this one. So I took matters into my own hands. I had been planning on making a fabric version, and even purchased some insulated fabric, but my first attempt was an epic fail. The problem was that I did not research it enough and sort of "winged" it. Let's suffice it to say that it was not going to work. My mistake was that I was trying to reinvent the wheel, figuratively. Why waste time doing it when someone smarter than me has already done the work? I found this great tutorial here, and it was brilliant. Only two pattern pieces! I already had the cotton fabric in my stash, so that was free. I did have to pay $15.00 for a bean bag chair at Walmart for the polystyrene beads inside to use as insulation. I still have enough beads left over for another thermal cooker. I think someone will get one for Christmas as a gift. :) Basically, it is a beanbag with a dent in the middle to place your heated pot. Then you put an insulated lid on top (pictured on the right) and wait for the requisite time without touching it. (I hear that is the hardest part. NO peeking!) Will test drive the cooker for dinner tonight. P.S. The fabric from my first failed attempt did not go to waste. I made an outer shell to place the thermal cooker in for additional heat retention!

I love layer cakes. I love those beautiful bundles of gorgeous 10" squares, all coordinated and stacked beautifully. I love that I can have a little piece of every fabric from a new designers range in a handy bundle. I had a few layer cake squares in my fabric basket which were left over from a quilt project I worked on last year (or perhaps even the year before). I joined the 'It's Cool to be Square' blog hop, hosted by Carol of Just Let Me Quilt and thought it would be fun to somehow play with layer cake squares. You know, in keeping with the 'square' theme. I experimented with my idea of square in a square in a square by stacking two of the 10" squares. I cut (2) 2" x 10" rectangles from the side of the square and then turned 90 degrees and cut another (2) 2" x 6" rectangles from the bottom of the remaining layer cake. I then put these pieces aside and from that remaining square, I cut (2) 1" x 6" rectangles from one side. And then went 90 degrees and cut another (2) 1" x 4" rectangles. Still with me? These are all of the pieces laid out on the cutting mat. I hope they make sense. Anyways, as I'd stacked two layer cake squares to start with, from this point, I swapped out the 1" rectangles with the ones underneath and began to sew. We'll call these Fabric 1 and Fabric 2. Sew the Fabric 2 rectangles around that central (Fabric 1) square. Trim and press. Then sew the Fabric 1 rectangles (same as the centre fabric) right around the block. Trim and press. Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy, right? Do the same for the remaining fabric and you end up with two blocks without too much effort or brain strain. I'm calling these my 'Square in a square in a square' blocks. I had a few more pieces of the layer cake remaining so I found a little bit of yardage that had nice coordinating colours and cut out a few more 10" squares. I ended up making 9 of these square in a square in a square blocks. I layered up some batting and quilted the piece on my machine with straight lines, using the seams as a guide. I then added some fun hand quilting with perle 8 cotton in a lovely delicate cream colour for extra texture. I finished this huge pillow off with an envelope style back. This project is the perfect size for a European pillow insert. I bought mine from Ikea, but I'm sure they're a standard size which can be bought anywhere you'd buy pillow or cushion inserts. It's been super cold and wet and windy today, so I ran out this afternoon for a quick photo shoot. Brrrrrr it's cold out there. If you decide to make a #HipToBeSquarePillow project, I'd absolutely love to see it. Thanks to Carol for hosting this fun blog hop.
