Sew a Cast Iron Skillet Handle Cover

[@brandyharker-o6n]

Love how you added measurements. Watched many videos to get that part

[@joanneromshak4685]

thank you, you make it seem so easy. can;t wait to try.

[@SewnByNikki]

You can do it! Very easy project!

[@jackiebaaby]

Loved this tutorial, thank you!! After making my first one, I noticed that I was still getting quite a bit of heat through the cover. So I made a second one with two layers of batting and I’m able to leave the cover on my skillet the entire time I cook without it getting hot!!

[@SewnByNikki]

Glad it was helpful! I have learned that when I purchase Insulbright, or Pellon interfacings, they are not all the same with the thickness or the glues so it doesn't surprise me that your material wasn't thick enough. You will learn, that where you purchase your materials you may like one location better for the quality. Happy hunting and happy sewing! : )

[@donabackus8666]

You are hands down my favorite! You are the only one that actually explains each process in detail. Thank you so much.❤❤❤

[@cindyking9301]

You are delightful….thank you for your clear and concise instructions.

[@mariericcardo2114]

Thank you so very very much Nikki you explained it in simple terms easy to follow. Step by step. You have a very calming voice which made it easy to follow your instructions

[@lindacampbell2329]

So easy this is a great for using up my scraps from other projects thank you so much this is the easiest one I’ve found so far

[@SewnByNikki]

Glad it was helpful for you!

[@shelleyjoslin9522]

This is the best explanation of how to make the caste iron pan handle covers I have found.

[@margaretswann6805]

Love your video

[@suejohnson5513]

No criticism of your great tutorial, just a quick suggestion to make sewing easier. If you start sewing your seam from the thicker fabric end rather than the lining end, it is much easier to sew over the center seam as yiu are sewing off the "fat" end rather than trying to sew up on to it.

[@carolmccall5721]

Love this!!!!, also the curling iron cover. Thank you. I'm. looking forward to your next video. Love practical, eco friendly kitchen, dinning room, laundry room items. Thanks again.

[@SherrySmith-i8y]

Thank you so very much for this video it is the first one I have seen from you. I bought a regular sewing machine after the virus and started making face masks and I'm just now getting myself too so I really appreciated your step-by-step instructions instruction and I look forward to watching many more videos. I have we located now because during the virus there was a hurricane LOL and I'm finally settled enough to break out the sewing machine so excited

[@hennypenny5118]

Thank you! You have such a nice voice; easy to listen to and friendly. I love making these for craft shows. Just had to come back for a quick look again. Thank you!

[@SewnByNikki]

Thank you so much! Be sure to use the Insulbrite. There are several tutorials out there that do not use any batting... that defeats the purpose of making the cover to protect your hands. Enjoy!

[@paulaandrews6376]

Made one yesterday. Thanks

[@rosamundmundy6966]

Thank you great tutorial... going to make these for our craft shop

[@lynnballenger3799]

You are a wonderful teacher! I just subscribed to your channel. I need to make several of these for me and my girls.

[@TheMzTR]

Tks for sharing this project with us 🙂

[@colene77]

Thanks!! Very good teaching ability!!!!!

[@ruththompson891]

Very well explained, simple and clear, thanks for the tutorial.

[@KeyserTheRedBeard]

nice upload Sewn By Nikki. I shattered that thumbs up on your video. Maintain up the awesome work.

[@angelastephens4247]

Thanks!! Fabulous tutorial!

[@hopepadilla1814]

Thank you for showing an easy way to turn it around. I watched a different video where the lady was not clear and so I did not finish it so thank you for the great video.

[@karolyndudley7888]

Excellent. Thanks for great instructions

[@SewnByNikki]

You are welcome! Thank you!

[@annafayedye1792]

I love your step by step videos. I made the cast iron skillet handles. So easy.

[@SewnByNikki]

That is awesome! They are great to use for a number of things. I have customers who purchase these for reading glasses. : ) Thank you for watching!

[@rhondarichmond9259]

Thank you for walking me thru this first time ever I have sewed by myself with out someone watching me

[@SewnByNikki]

Yay!! Good to know! You can do it! There are so many beginner projects that you can learn.... having someone talk you through it can help, even if no one is hanging over your shoulder. Take your time - practice often and replay, replay, replay a video until you have figured things out!! Ain't no shame in that!!

[@rhondarichmond9259]

@@SewnByNikki so far I've made 11 going to donate to churches for welcome gifts for single moms feels amazing

[@maryfrey6177]

Great for popsicles too to protect little hands from the cold

[@LynneR1954]

Omg. It was so easy. Thank you! I was doing one with pattern earlier this is so much easier. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@dianeharmon5536]

This is such a great project for me! Nikki...you are such a wonderful teacher....I can't wait to get home and make these..and learn more from you!

[@SewnByNikki]

You are so welcome! Thank you so much for your feedback. As I mentioned, there are definitely other options to use it for! Have fun with it.

[@millielewis4495]

Thank you for your easy step by step directions. I tried 2 other patterns by other people and they were so complicated.

[@SewnByNikki]

Glad it was helpful!

[@roxannesmith6656]

Very nice & helpful ! Thank you so much !

[@lenettesmith5594]

So simple, I love your step by step method. Thank You!

[@SewnByNikki]

Glad it was helpful! Some of my tutorials seem long but really, I am just walking you through the project explaining the WHY you need to sew something a certain way, not just the HOW to sew. I hope you find others helpful.

[@margaretswann3634]

Hi Ms. Nikki. I just found your sewing channel and I am so glad!. You are a wonderful teacher and I really look forward to learning from you. Thank you for all your efforts.

[@SewnByNikki]

Thank you so much! I hope you watch a few of the tutorials and make some cool things. I love sewing and try to bring my experiences to you all. I am not a professional, just want to teach you what I know. Enjoy!

[@MissyKay1]

These are awesome!! I am just starting out with sewing and really wanted to make some of these for myself and for gifts. Super easy video to follow! Thanks

[@starlawheeler81]

Love this tutorial! Will be following you! 😊

[@SewnByNikki]

Yay! Thank you! I hope you find some others useful!

[@MsTerryG1]

Your adorable - Thanks can't wait to make these.

[@SewnByNikki]

Hope you enjoy. I have been told of many other uses for this so... guess it is handy; reading glasses case, hot curler/straightener carry and more.

[@deniothompson5100]

Thanks for making this so easy to understand. I love this. I'm making a set of pan holders and potholders with a bowl cozy for Christmas presents. I have family all over this country and it will be light weight for shipping and home made.

[@SewnByNikki]

Sounds great! They will also have custom kitchen items - which makes your gift special! I know I change mine often - just customize them according to what your family likes. : ) Enjoy!

[@beckyhuston97]

Thank you... Easiest one I've seen. Just subbed

[@daviskathi1233]

Saw you for the first time tonight,and i like what i saw,so i subscribed.Now i'll have something to do this weekend since we are expecting rain,i'll watch your videos and see what i missed..Thanks.

[@SewnByNikki]

That's what I love to hear! Thank you!

[@findlayhunter4934]

So, THAT’S what that little button is for!!!!

[@mommycarol98]

With just regular cotton batting it’d be perfect for freezer pops!

[@gilc.6888]

Thank you for this video

[@lindaborowiec6049]

Excellent!

[@MuzikInZpired]

i love this! Added to my list for projects to try!

[@ivalat810]

Thank you💗

[@shtanah]

I will try these! Shanta

[@anna-mae.c]

Might make a nice freezy holder.

[@SewnByNikki]

It is great for popsicles!

[@molliedavis7277]

Thank you so much!!! I requested this.

[@SewnByNikki]

You bet! Glad you saw it. It really is a quick project but you can use it for other things, besides the pan handle! Remember, you can alter the size and add on to the length if you need to.... depending on the size of your pan. 5 in. wide is a good width though... Let me know if you have questions. : )

[@alisonraymond2079]

Popsicles too

[@LynneR1954]

FYI. I use a Kelly forceps locking tweezer clamp to simply turn through everything. Much much easier. $4.23 on Amazon

[@amajax24]

This is so great! Is your insul-bright "crunchy"? Mine makes noise when I squeeze it.

[@SewnByNikki]

Yes. It should. That is the foil inside. : )

[@calstalk1675]

I love sewing small things...lol

[@SewnByNikki]

They can be a bit intimidating to people when you have thick fingers and several layers of fabric but.... I make it work. : )

[@starlawheeler81]

What would measurements be for a curling iron? To hold the whole iron.

[@SewnByNikki]

No sure about yours. There are many different types of curling iron. I would measure the height and width of yours and add on about 2-3" for the seams and diameter of the curling iron.

[@marilynbrewer1310]

When I just use insulbright, the heat comes through if i don’t use batting

[@SewnByNikki]

Depends on what Insulbright your store sells. Like fusible fleece, it comes in different thicknesses. Regular fabric, same print, can also be purchased at 2 different stores and depending on what "run" of the fabric off the machine the retailer purchased, the fabric can be very thin/see through, or thicker (for better quality). Use cotton batting to offset the cost of the material since you know now about the quality of the Insulbright. That would be helpful.

[@susansexton8264]

Do you use 1 or 2 layers of unsulbright?

[@SewnByNikki]

I use 1 which has proven to be good. Use two if you would like. Just reduce size in your interface so it reduces bulk.

[@lindacain2240]

do you know what the maximum teperature this will work with?

[@SewnByNikki]

It is heat resistant up to 400 degrees. I would do some research on what it is you are looking to use it for - if not a holder.

[@lindacain2240]

@@SewnByNikki Thanks, that was the information I needed. I want to use it as a a holder and I often put the Cast Iron pan in the over (but not with the holder attached.)

[@MsEbrooker]

Some of.my customers use these for their kids ice pops.

[@SewnByNikki]

That would totally work for both - IF they are using insulbrite. If they are using felt, just as an inside lining, it would not be good for the pan handle. But... perfect sizing for a few things.....! : )

[@collettegay1432]

I don’t understand what you mean by the stitching should be 3.0.

[@jbd9507]

She’s telling you to adjust your stitch length 😊
