The Easiest Bowl Cozy Tutorial Ever!

[@patdyar3832]

I made this this afternoon really easy you did a great job explaining the process. Thank you❤

[@veevee111]

Who will I be making some bowl cozies for? Me. I've made several and have gifted them to friends and family but never have I made some for me. Thank you for this tutorial, Stacey.

[@staceyleecreative]

That's wonderful! It's time to make some for you! Thanks for watching ❤

[@MichelleHoffman313]

I'm looking forward to making one of these! Love your idea of sewing scraps together or using a block pattern to use as the fabric!

[@janeneathey8977]

Love your video. I find it less fiddly to use the large square as the template, not the little triangle. Just an idea for those of you who find small templates difficult to use xxx

[@staceyleecreative]

Great idea! Thanks for watching ❤

[@Karen.L.771]

Hi Stacey, just stumbled across your channel, this is a great bowl cosy video, I am going to have a go at this, my cousin from Melbourne came to stay with me in England just before Christmas and she made me one of these with cute Koala's on the material on one side and plain on the other side, I love it.

[@annabellacuavera9909]

Gonna make some for myself

[@PaulaWhite-n8u]

These make great office coworker gifts.

[@staceyleecreative]

I think they'd make fantastic gifts for coworkers 😊 Thanks for watching ❤

[@karlaloves2garden]

OMG! Your approach to making bowl cozies is so much easier than others that I have seen! I have been making them for gifts and struggling - my husband saw me watching your video and said I have to make the one for his ice cream!! So I will be ordering your pattern!! Thank you for your tutorials - I am getting back into sewing and trying to learn to quilt. You are one of the few ladies that really make this seem less intimidating and fun! Hugs to you from Southern California!!

[@staceyleecreative]

That is so wonderful to hear! I am glad you enjoy my tutorials! Thanks for watching ❤

[@louisedoire]

Hi Stacey! I've made these for a friend. She loves them! I love that you're always thinking of tips and tricks to make making easier. 🤩

[@staceyleecreative]

She is a lucky friend. 😊

[@tinalewis9746]

I haven't sewn since Jr high sewing class in the 80s. Watching your videos, it's starting to come back to me. I'll be making these for myself. A nice, easy, beginner project to get me used to my new machine. Thank you!!

[@staceyleecreative]

Awesome - happy sewing! 😊 Thanks for watching! 🌟 💖

[@gaylerogers8413]

I have made these before, actually for Christmas a few years back & made them for all the grandkids & parents. I really liked your easy to follow instructions and the tips, especially the tip with the corner marker for sewing those points. Thank You!!

[@staceyleecreative]

Wonderful! Thanks for watching ❤

[@bettyking5032]

I have made many bowl cozies, but I am always looking for a better way to do things, and/or refresh my memory since I am a senior. This is an exceptional tutorial, clear, concise and to the point. All that we need to know, and no fluff. Thank you. Oh, I do find that if I go back at the end and add a side to side top seam it keeps the cozy neater after washing and drying. Thanks for your video.

[@staceyleecreative]

Thank you so much for this lovely feedback! I'm happy the tutorial was helpful and clear. Love your tip about adding that extra top seam - what a smart way to keep the cozy looking neat after washing! Thanks for sharing that with our community! 🧵

[@lorihuntley836]

Such a great idea to cut the batting smaller so you don’t have to deal with batting in your seam allowances. Makes it so much easier to make. Thanks.

[@staceyleecreative]

Glad you liked the video. Thanks for watching ❤

[@sheshefaxio5697]

I've made a cozy but it's been awhile and i struggled with bulky seams. Your instructions are very clear 😊 I'm going to make a few for my granddaughter who just moved into her first apartment. ❤

[@staceyleecreative]

That's so sweet - I'm sure your granddaughter will love them! You'll find them easier to sew with the smaller batting. Thanks for watching ❤

[@cbrasuk]

Thank you so much for this video! Your game-changing tip of cutting the batting smaller than the fabric is a wonderful idea! I made one bowl cozy before, but cut the batting the same size as the fabric and it was too thick around the edge. I ended up breaking two needles! I was going to give up making the cozies, but now you've given me new hope! Thank you!

[@staceyleecreative]

I'm so glad this video helped! I love that you are making bowl cozies - I know your family will love them! ❤

[@rachelmcguire9219]

I love the bowl cozies. I have a friend who has very poor eye sight and I made one for her. Your tutorial was very helpful. Thank you.

[@staceyleecreative]

That's wonderful! I’m so glad it was helpful. 🥰 Thanks for watching 😊❤

[@marciascott141]

Made these before and need to do more for myself and gifts. So useful! Have used and washed mine, I think the extra quilting lines are a good idea.

[@staceyleecreative]

I am glad you like them! I agree the extra quilting lines will be helpful! Thanks for watching ❤

[@Dasburyfamily]

Loved your bowl cozy tutorial Stacey. Beautiful fabric! Great idea to use scrap fabric to make the 10” starting square. 🩷🌸🌸🌸🩷

[@staceyleecreative]

Thank you Debbie Glad you liked it! ❤

[@j.ingerborgmarrero2755]

I have been wanting to try bowl cozy’s for quite a while your way is easy so now I will try them.

[@staceyleecreative]

Great! Let me know what you think of them! Thanks for watching ❤

[@lillianmartinez1593]

My family and friends love these. I have made over 50. The tip on the batting is great! TFS. 💕🌴😎

[@staceyleecreative]

Wow that's epic! Thanks for watching ❤

[@debbymccauley4774]

I will be making these for Christmas present to gift to Couples.🎄

[@staceyleecreative]

I'm sure they'll love them! Thanks for watching ❤️

[@ruthgoodhart4640]

It’s been more than a minute since I made a bowl cozy, but I recently had a request for a couple of them for gifts. Needing a refresh, I found your tutorial and it was so concisely and easy to follow! Thank you.

[@staceyleecreative]

So glad you found it helpful! 😊 Thanks for watching ❤

[@cheryleaston6820]

I will make one or 2 for me then all my family members of the sports teams they support. TFS

Thanks for this video!!! I was just having a hot bowl of soup today and the thought popped into my head- I need a bowl cozy! Your video will definitely come in handy for making mine.

[@staceyleecreative]

I am so glad you are making one! Thank you for watching 🥰 ✨

[@brendanaughton9450]

Ty!

[@cburke840]

💕 your tutorials, Stacey. Made music themed, dogs and cats as Christmas gifts. Your tip about making batting 1 inch smaller really helped, as I had trouble when both material and batting were the same size. Happy New Year 🎉2025. Love all your tutorials. Catherine and 🐈 from 🇨🇦

[@staceyleecreative]

Thank you Catherine - so happy you found my tutorials helpful! I love the music, dog and cat themed bowl cozies - what great gifts! Happy New Year!

[@karenadkins9155]

I have been asked to make an ice cream cozy and I e for a rectangular dish. Thank you so much for the details!

[@staceyleecreative]

That's so great to hear! You can certainly adapt this pattern for any shape or size! ❤️

[@MarciaSauro-z7q]

Hi Stacey. Thank you for this fun and easy project video. I made one today and will make them for gifts throughout the year and for next Christmas!

I love your tutorial! I’ve make lots of these. I like making them a bit larger, around 11” or 11 1/2” square.

[@staceyleecreative]

I love seeing all the different variations you all make! Thank you for watching!

[@paperinkspirations]

I'll be making one for my mother-in-law.

[@staceyleecreative]

Yay! She will love it! Thanks for watching ❤

[@sandybettencourt5735]

Hi I made 4 bowl cozies after watching your original video. I agree that using batting of same size as fabric made sewing over the seams difficult. I will try making the batting smaller. Thank you!

[@staceyleecreative]

I'm glad you tried it out and I hope that making the batting smaller makes a difference. Thanks for watching! 😊

[@koalasez1200]

I’ve made some of these in the past; it just occurred to me that this would be a good project to practice some loose, loopy stippling. It won’t show up like it would on a placemat or quilt and any inconsistencies would be camouflaged by the little seam angles etc. I can’t believe I hadn’t thought of this before 😂. Thank you for your tutorial!!!! 😊

[@staceyleecreative]

What a great idea! Thanks for watching ❤

Hi Stacey,I love bowl cosies. I've made many for Christmas & filled them with lollies( for some reason a lot of the adults favour the Jim Bean fudge 🤔). Sometimes I have used Christmas fabric with metallic & make it very clear not to use in the microwave. Even with 'safe' material I don't put them in there. My luck would be setting fire to the kitchen! I have to start making them for me as my sets all seem to disappear 😅. I hope you & family had a nice Christmas & have a great 2025 ! 🇭🇲🦜🦘

Hey Stacey Lee, I like the shape of this bowl cozy better than the ones I've made in the past. How many of this size bowl do you think I can get out of one package of wrap n zap? I'm looking to make 10 bowl cozies for my adult kids and grandchildren

[@staceyleecreative]

Hey! I think you'll need two. But I am just guessing. You can probably get it on sale at Joann. Sometimes it's very cheap on amazon too. Happy sewing! ❤
