How to Make an Oven Mitt (A) | The Sewing Room Channel

[@MiMi-si5nk]

Great video again. I would like to make a pair but slightly larger. Your thoughts would be appreciated. Always enjoy you. 🇨🇦

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Mi Mi. You can make this any size you need. Decide how long and wide, and then adjust the measurements to cut the fabric. Happy sewing. 😍

[@pollymartin604]

I love how you "get to it" without useless babble. Nice video and great project.

[@Diedrich24]

I agree! The quick introduction lets viewers know who you are then you get right into the project. At the end when you suggest viewers subscribe to the change, you are quick and to the point. Each step is described in detail yet doesn't have any extra talk that viewers really don't need. You are a wonderful teacher with such a soothing and encouraging tone.

[@annephythyon4792]

Your instructions are outstanding and you have the most wonderful, soothing professional voice.

[@flossymelton7658]

Sherrill, there are many things I appreciate re. your videos. Right now, watching this video, I very much appreciate that you do not spend endless minutes actually sewing the example. Your post-it notes and close-ups are excellent and easy to follow. The minutes, in other videos,spent chain stitching or sewing strips together are not necessary. Demonstrate it once and move on If the viewer doesn't get it, rewind or back up is available. Please keep doing what you are doing.

[@eileenfb1948]

Beautiful gift, thank you.

[@amiswish]

loved your video..You explained everything well. I would just like to mention that it would be better if you used contrasting thread so others could see where you are sewing or have sewn. eg: where you sewed the loop on the top.

[@dianaacree2415]

I really like your videos and have learned so much from you. I don’t remember you saying, do you make it a practice to prewash the fabric before making projects such as a potholder? Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Diana. Yes you can pre-wash the fabric before you cut it. Make sure you zig zag stitch the 2 raw edges of the fabric before wash/dry cycle. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing. 😍

[@dianaacree2415]

Thank you so much for your reply. I wasn’t sure if it was necessary and if it would make a difference with the quality of the potholder. If I gave it as a gift, I wouldn’t want it to shrink if I didn’t prewash it.

[@bethsumner5324]

I got a little confused on the end of the binding & the loop will have to watch this a few times but liked the video on the whole

[@julietong1418]

I absolutely loved this video. U explain steps so carefully and are so organised. The photographer is also focused..I was just wondering if your used straight-cut binding or bias?

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

I Juliet. I used a straight grain cut binding because all the side edges are straight. If the corners were curved, then used bias cut fabric. Stay safe. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing.

[@serapugurlugil9214]

i love your videos.thank you very much.I did not understand the small peace that you cut a square on the top ! where did you used it and why you cut that small square?? could you please explain that.thank you.

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Serap. I am glad to help you, but could tell me the size of the square you are referring to. There are so many pieces of fabric in this video. It would help if I new the measurements of this square. Let me know. Happy sewing.

[@jeannekelley]

It’s so it won’t be so thick when you sew the final square stitch.

[@jilllazdane8861]

@@jeannekelley I wondered what on earth the cutouts were for. Seems a little odd for not much gain.

[@dlf928]

When using the insul brute should there be a wrong and right side and which way should they face

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Deb. The instructions that come with Insul-Bright do not specify which side should be face. I think placing it with either side up is fine. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing. 😍

[@lhm72052]

I have made oven mitts, years ago, and they were not very effective in protecting hands from the heat. Maybe I didn't use enough batting with the insulbrite, I dont know. Do these seem to be pretty heat resistant? If so, I'd love to try making these. Very cute!

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Lori. My husband is the cook in the family. I just enjoy the great meals he prepares. I call him the food devil. He has never complained that the Insul-bright didn't protect his hands. Try making one with the Insul-bright and see what you think. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing.

[@learntocrochet1]

I know it was years ago that you published this but if you are still able to, perhaps you can clear two things up? 1) Does the Insulbright's metallic side face out, away from the inside of the mitt on the back piece? 2) Why is Insulbright necessary on the smaller top piece? Seeing that part doesn't come in direct contact with heat, wouldn't two layers of cotton batting suffice?

[@msirisrocks1]

How do I stitch in the ditch with all the pins in the back??

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Alba. Even though the pins are on the back just turn it over to the front and stitch next to the binding. Don't stitch over the pins - remove the pins as you sew. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing. 😍

[@mclrose7]

I don’t like binding; how can I make this without it? Thanks.

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Rose. Here is a link to a pot holder that demonstrates how to cover the edges without binding: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6HMiaOKfreEnqM Hope this helps. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing. 😍

[@suzypolicarpo4697]

I tried making this oven mitt and found it difficult to make. I could not get the binding right with the loop. I was very confused and gave up.

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Suzy. Here is another video with the same binding/loop on it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/sGGxY6uqm5qVl8k Maybe this one will help. Leave a comment if you have any questions. Thanks for watching.😍

[@stitchinggrannyof18]

Is the binding cut on the bias?

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

No. Because all the edges are straight, it is not necessary to cut the binding on the bias. Binding cut on the bias is usually used on rounded edges. Thanks for watching the video. Happy sewing.

[@elysiab2453]

Would you be so kind as to put a pdf template of the cuts...you will get so many subs simply because you added a free template. ...Many many blessings for all you do...I love your videos---I can watch them all day---playlists help on views too

[@dijones2441]

Cute

[@CloudyWishes]

i am a bit lost... Sorry but did you miss a bit of the binding off of the instructions at the beginning? Thank you

[@CloudyWishes]

at 5.18 minutes

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

There is 2 strips of binding. The shorter piece of binding is sewn onto the top edge of the front section. The longer piece of binding is sewn around the entire edge of the oven mitt and ends with making the loop. I hope I answered your questions. Please feel free to ask me more questions. Happy sewing.

[@CloudyWishes]

The Sewing Room Channel Yes thank you , clear now x

[@lightofthequran8961]

I don't understand why u made 2 sets of layers with lining, when u were going to seal it from all sides? I mean what was the point of lining then? I love the way u explain but I'm lost there.Can u help please?

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi. That's a good question. The cotton lining fabric is used to protect the insulation fabric (cotton batting and insul-brite ) from coming apart. The insulation fabrics are fragile and can come apart easily through use. Also, the cotton lining fabric is very soft and comfortable to touch. I hope I answered your question. Happy sewing.

[@mimwedel2152]

I clicked Subscribe but didn’t get anything from KZbin about bringing alerted on more of her videos. Anyone else have this problem?

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Mim. There should be a little bell some where on your KZbin screen. Click on it and it will list all the new videos you have subscribed to. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing. 😍

[@annbrixey3155]

The instructions for sewing on the tail are driving me insane. You show how to cut and fold the 7” strip but you don’t show how to sew it to the pot holder... you miss that out completely.

[@TheSewingRoomChannel]

Hi Ann. The 7" strip of binding is placed at the top edge of the very front section. Go to 5 minute 8 seconds into the video for the demonstration. The "tail" you are referring to is the hanging loop. The loop is part of the binding that goes all around the outer edge of the oven mitt. The last step demonstrates how to make the loop out of the end of the binding. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing.
