Thanks for making this clear and concise tutorial! I actually was gifted a pattern for one much like this but it is so much easier for me to watch a video.

[@supercrafts]

Watching is so much easier than reading and trying to interperet instructions isn't it? :)

Mais lindo, impossível! Parabéns!

[@supercrafts]

Thank you

[@marielcoates9340]

Lovely item. What do you mean by fuser web? Is this a fusible interfacing? I'd really like to try this.

[@supercrafts]

It's like interfacing to look at. It's a thin layer of webbing that's fusible both sides. If you're in the US I believe heat n bond is what you'd call it. There should be a link in description for it x

[@supercrafts]

If you can wait until Sunday I have redone the video to account for my original error. There is a pattern on our blog. Blog.supercrafts.co.uk

[@mindymoore8904]

Hello, could you tell me where you got your ironing board? It's so cute and the perfect size. Thank you!

[@supercrafts]

supercrafts.co.uk/quilting/1023-trimits-quilters-4-in-1-multi-mat-24-x-30-x-3-cm.html they're currently out of stock but we have more on order. The owl one I use is really popular. If you want to send an email via the website I'll let you know when we expect to have them 😘

[@nancy9478]

If you are using directional fabric, cut it on the bias and it will be oriented correctly when you sew the squares together. Ask me how I know. If you want to use 3 fabrics, cut a square an inch smaller. Sew the first 2 squares all around, cut an x in the center of the top fabric and turn right side out, then press. Attach the smaller square with heat n bond and sew the squares together. I wish this tutorial was around last year, it would have saved me so much frustration.

[@supercrafts]

Have you made one with three fabrics? I can't figure out from your description where the third would sit in the finished mat? If you've made it I'd love to see... Not sure I can direct message in KZbin to send you an email address?

[@nancy9478]

I got the idea from the stitch and fold kits. I cut my squares like you do, but I sew all the way around. Cut a + in the center of the top piece only, just an inch, enough to turn it right side out. Press. Heat n bond a 3rd fabric (use lite) and cut a square 5 inches, make sure to pay attention if it is directional to cut on the bias, you will see that it needs to go top to bottom on the diagonal when you sew them together. Remove the paper, and place on top of the side with the cut, centering it, and iron it in place. The squares can then be sewn together as you do it here. There is a tutorial for the kit on youtube, but I wont mention the channel out of respect for your channel. Your tutorial is so understandable, I hope you can make the three color one and do a tutorial. BTW squares can be made any size. Let me know if I can help further.

[@manualidadesconabuelamimi8808]

New subscriber, love this tutorial

[@supercrafts]

Thank you! 😁

[@sharongardner9044]

Beautiful I can’t wait to start it. Is there a way to print the written instructions?

[@supercrafts]

If you go to our blog and search candle mat there is an older post from a few years ago. There are written instructions there. I am looking at sorting a proper instruction booklet for this. Time permitting!

Maravilhoso

[@supercrafts]

Thank you 😊

[@christinebrennan9080]

Can you make the squares smaller

[@supercrafts]

You can yes. You should still need the same amount. I'm going to be redoing this video in a couple of weeks to incorporate a few of the ideas in comments from this one (and to put right my measurements!) 😊

[@elisetefurlanetto9332]

por favor, tem como colocar as medidas e o molde....?? thankyou

[@supercrafts]

Na verdade, você não precisa de um padrão. Cada quadrado tem 6 polegadas x 6 polegadas (12 de um tecido e 12 de outro, totalizando 24 quadrados) e o Fuse-a-web tem 5,5 polegadas. ---- You don't actually need a pattern. Each square is 6 inch x 6 inch (12 from one fabric and 12 from another, total 24 squares) and the Fuse-a-web is 5.5 inches.

[@christineparry5873]

Hi. If you started with 6” x 6” squares your finished square is 5.5”. When you “measure” the line for stitching them together you don’t actually mark at 4” from the top right, just 8 small squares on your cutting mat. These can’t be 1/2” squares as there are 14 of them on each side instead of 11. If we actually measure 4” on a ruler this ends up far too close to the bottom corner. It should be more like 3” as it’s just over half the length of the side. Might be worth putting a note on screen correcting this, the shorter marks don’t have quite as much influence but do need altering too. It’s a shame as it’s a great video otherwise. I’m going to make a few of these, once I’ve corrected the maths! Thank you.

[@supercrafts]

I actually added a note in the description about this early this morning. X

[@suzanneandalucia7141]

Bonsoir ,Es qu’il serait possible d’avoir les mesures d’un carré svp.L’idée est très intéressante,je vais le faire pour Noël .Merci à toi.

[@supercrafts]

Carrés de tissu de 6 pouces (12 d'un tissu et 12 d'un autre, total 24 carrés) Fusionnez une toile - 5,5 pouces sur 5,5 pouces et vous en aurez besoin de 12 ----- 6 inch squares of fabric (12 from one fabric and 12 from another, total 24 squares) Fuse a web - 5.5 inch by 5.5 inch and you'll need 12 of those
