[@donnacrimmins789]

Thanks for redoing the tutorial. Even though I have sewed for years I am a little slow and no expert. I will give it a try.

Delilah, this was a great tutorial. You explained things so well & clear. Thank you from Australia.

[@SimplyDelilah]

You are so welcome! I’m so glad you liked it!

[@sarahcochcroft323]

Love this!! Great gift idea!! Thank you!!

[@shelleyt3048]

Yes this would be good for beginners. I love the idea of putting the opening in the inner seam instead of the outer seam. I’ll be trying that!

[@SimplyDelilah]

I’m so glad you liked it and that it was easy to follow 😊

[@SharonRStudio]

This is great tutorial. I didn’t see the other, but love this. And no binding! The little opening in the border is genius.

[@SimplyDelilah]

I am so glad you liked it! I’m really happy that you found it easy to follow.

Good demonstration 🙌 Looks easy enough to do. Clever idea to recycle some old towels for inside the hot pad. A piece of ribbon, elastic or an elastic ponytail holder could be used in place of the folded strip of fabric as the hanging loop.

[@juliatepe5760]

Tnanks! I never thought of using elastic or a pony tail holder for the loop.

[@SimplyDelilah]

yes great suggestion! I have used those elastic that you get from all a dollar.

[@lynnshepard7485]

Great tutorial, Delilah! I definitely think this will be good for beginners. I adore the fake binding. It’s so much faster! I like the slower pace of this tutorial. I’m really old and my brain is slower. 😂 Sew with joy! 😘

Thank you for redoing your video. I saw the first one and it was a bit confusing. However, the idea of doing the fake binding in this way is quite clever. I look forward to trying it for some Christmas gifts. Many thanks.

[@SimplyDelilah]

You are so welcome!

[@susannehughes3227]

Much better!!!!

[@SimplyDelilah]

Thank you!

Thanks for this video. You just gave me the answer to my conundrum on what to give my many children for Christmas. As I never saw the first video, I won’t worry about it. This one is great. Everyone has a different comfort level with technology, but they should check out the top right hand corner gear on the video screen of KZbin, where they can also slow it down. I use pause when I’m learning a technique from a creative. Thanks again for sharing this tutorial. It looks wonderful and I love how you added some embroidery, which I have been learning this year. ❤❤❤

[@SimplyDelilah]

thank you, yes embroidery is so much fun! it gives these hotpads so much character.

[@sandofthesun]

Great tutorial ❤

[@SimplyDelilah]

Thank you! 😊

[@ocean_hummer]

[@SimplyDelilah]

Thanks for watching!

[@carolyningram2184]

Hello it's one that I'll try soon. Thanks for the video

[@SimplyDelilah]

thank you for watching!

[@annieruth324]

HERE IS A TIP FOR THOSE THAT HAVE A HARD TIME WITH YOUR SPEED: They can go to "settings" on the video - click "Playback Speed" - Set speed at a lower rate. There ya go! And PS Delilah: I am currently - as I type this - watching this video while sewing up some hot pads with the faux binding from your previous video!!!! I had some people order some with matching bowl covers....I will try to find you on instagram and show you my projects!

[@sannes7647]

Thank you for the video, I think this is perfect timing.

[@SimplyDelilah]

Yes! I think so too!

[@carolinefortheloveofcrochet]

Thank you, I never saw the first one but, this one is great thank you. Can you list your top 10 fonts for certain things. font for shirts, fonts for small items, I want to some fonts for embroidering but I don't know what to get.

[@SimplyDelilah]

Thank you! Yes! One this I can say is check out designs by JUJU…it’s a website and all the fonts are very high quality

[@christinahall3318]

When you say “felt” are you referring to batting?

[@SimplyDelilah]

I actually had felt laying around so I used that... I would recommend batting.. but I just used what I had laying around...and I have tons of felt laying around right now.

[@janadpews]

Don’t your viewers know they can pause it??

[@SimplyDelilah]

I hope so..sometimes sewing can lead to frustration so I complete understand.

[@harryburkett7754]

I thought this was a good tutorial. Don't forget to remind newbies that the fabric and thread should be 100 percent cotton.

[@SimplyDelilah]

You are absolutely right! Thank you for the reminder!
