Easy To Make Mini Oven Mitts

[@BrendaMalone-zq2hp]

You are the best instructor I have ever had. You sew like a real home seamstress, making it very real and only giving information we need to make the item. Thank you very much!

I just love how honest your tutorials are! Most channels are heavily edited with too many cuts. But you show what we actually experience when creating and making- all the mishaps and second guessing lol. Love this channel!

[@TheCraftsChannel]

Thanks Diana, we rarely edit anything out - although there was a time when two Springer spaniels found their way into the studio. We don't talk about that! We try and do things in 'real' time so you have a better idea of what's achievable (and what can potentially go wrong...), c x

I changed your pattern a bit. This is crazy but my brother has false teeth and wanted a pouch to put them in if his mouth got sore. I had made your oven mitts and thought it would work. I put a couple of tabs on to keep it closed. Works great. Thanks 😊

Doesn't sound crazy at all, one set in each pocket makes perfect sense. What a great idea! c x

I was having a REALLLLLY frustrating time making stuff, NEW machine bucking and unthreading. So I decided to give it another go. Your voice and the fact that you don't edit out mistakes really helped. 8 of these to do for tomorrow. Thank you so much!

I would use a walking foot. Well worth the money to sew through all those layers. I also added a layer of insul-bright to further pad the large side. Just the batting is not enough when grabbing hot pans. Loved your video and thank you for going slow for us beginners. I am making a bunch for Christmas presents. Looking forward to more.

Thanks for the great video on these mini oven mitts. It looks like a quick project and I'd like to make them to send to my granddaughter for Valentines Day and her St. Patty's Day birthday using theme fabric. I have a question about the batting. Would it be alright to use Insul-Brite in place of the batting you used? I've noticed that pot holders I have purchased in the Dollar Store don't really protect against the heat and I usually have to use two of them. Also, if I use Insul-Brite should I also use a layer of batting?

I made my first one, following directions and it came out beautiful, except that it is too small. I checked the template again, looking at how close your drawn curves are to the edge of your paper vs. mine, and they seem identical. The only thing I can figure is that your template paper is larger than my US standard 8.5 x 11 paper. Is that true?

[@TheCraftsChannel]

Hi Cynthia, yes that could be the reason, our A4 is about 8.5 x 12 so your printer might be shrinking it down by about 7%. Your best bet is to cut the template out and then draw around it onto a new piece of paper, adding another 3/4" to the perimeter but leaving the horizontal line across the middle in the same place. Hope this helps and you can always give your too small one to a child that likes baking! c x
