You just taught a 66 year old lady how to make oven mitts. Your Mother must be so very proud of you. I know I am. I love your videos and you are such a sweet person with compassion in your heart. Thank you for your time and willingness to teach us new things. Never stop sewing, it is a gift that keeps going. God Bless you hun.
I've been trying to make oven mitts for my son, but every site I went to wasn't working out because the written instructions were strange. So, I decided to go to TH-cam, and, low and behold, I found you. Needless to say, your instructions are right on target. As a matter of fact, I just finished two mitts for him, and they fit perfectly. He is super happy. By the way, he's 40 years old, and I live with him and my daughter-in-law. Keep up the good work, and I'll be sure to use your site for further items.
for the life of me I can't understand why there are only 266 comments. I purchased the insulated fabric to make lunch boxes for Christmas and had no idea what to do with the left over insulated fabric. Till I realized there was a pattern on the back of the package and I just knew there was a tutorial for one. I searched a couple of patterns til I came across the CraftyGemini. As soon as I heard her voice I knew this was going to be a precise and doable tutorial. I made one of her patterns before and she knocked this out of the park again. THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Vanessa, I have been quietly following this channel for so long. I couldn’t sew back then but have learned from you and your videos since day one. Way back to your tiny room. I remember the quilts on the wall! Im proud to see you blossom so well, and have so many inspired people behind you. Merry & happy from the beautiful Cherokee hills in rural Oklahoma. I go other places but always end up back here! Take care, Trish ❤️
So very glad I found this video. It shows step - by - step how to make a nice oven mit. Some videos are too quick on their instructions, or, they have a bit of annoying music instead of the person's actual voice. Those videos are good when the person making the video doesn't speak your native tongue, but, it's nice to actually hear someone speaking the instructions. TY for sharing this video with us.
To anyone who is trying this out: adding cotton batting will make it harder to turn inside out once you're done stitching! Speaking as someone who decided to add 2 later of cotton batting and spent 30 mins flipping the stiffest mitt inside out 😭
Well, well, I'm 75 and you've just taught me how to make oven mitts!! Thank you, thank you! I love your video tutorials and how you explain so well. Keep your tutorials coming, I so appreciate them! God bless you and yours
Thank you! I watched your video Wednesday afternoon, went to the fabric store that night and completed 3 sets of oven mitts by Thursday afternoon and the fourth set by bedtime on Thursday. I made them for my kids Teacher Christmas gifts and they loved them. I'm glad I have some extra fabric to make a few more. This was my first experience at quilting.
I really had to overcome the fear factor but finally tried this. I don't know why, but when I was sewing the quilting part, twice I had a problem with the material puckering. Not sure how to fix this, so I am going to watch this video again, but I want to let you know how much I appreciated you sharing this how-to. So very grateful. And your pattern is the perfect size!
Thank you, Vanessa, for this wonderfully simple tutorial! I just finished two oven mitts for my DIL for Christmas. This was my first attempt at oven mitts, although I've made several of your patterns over the years. These were easy-peasy and I'm so grateful for your willingness to share your talents. You are an excellent instructor!
You are the best! When I first started quilting and tried to sew some peeker hats, small tote cosmetic bag, Cozi bowls and more, you explain and show so much! I made a quilted oven mitt the other day, the instructions were horrible and it took me an entire day to make it. It also involved making a binding, I did but it was extremely hard to sew on and then I had to hand sew to complete. Yesterday I searched for oven quilted mitts, you were in the selection, I immediately opened your tutorial. Today I made it in an hour!! Thank you so much!!! I'll send you a picture, hope to find your fb site to do so.
Thank you for this oven mitt tutorial. I have made several. I have opted to cut lining my lining 1/4 in. shorter. And I have used some strips of my “pretty fabric” on kitchen towel fabric and given as gifts. Your explanation are great!!! ❤️
You are my life saver!!🙏 I was doing a golf head club cover to a customer and was following a TH-cam how to do it. It was very misleading. But you helped me to put lining and outer together in a correct way!! Thank you so much🙏
Nancy.... Take piece of fabric for cut out oven mitt, then Insul Brite, then batting. Doe the same way for other side. I’ve had no complaints of heat getting through.
I watch so many of your videos because you take the time to walk through at 1:1 speed how everything is to be sewn. Thank you for another great video Gemini's rock!
I love your way so much better. I visited another bloggers site and was trying to copy everything down and then found your video. This is so much easier. Thank you-Thank You! Now I know what the family is getting for Christmas.
Thank you so much ! With your help , I made 4 pair oven mitts for Christmas to family , with some memorable patterns, it was satisfying and well received. I picked up a walking foot for this and am going to try a proper quilting project next.
It is becoming easier each time I make a set. I am using a layer of cotton batting in the middle (1 piece for each side) as it seems to keep the heat out. Great video with easy to follow instructions.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO!!! My grandmother-in-law's favorite oven mitts (in the family tartan) wore out recently, and we couldn't for the life of us find new ones commercially in the same tartan.
These mitts will be great gifts and a wonderful replacement for my worn out kitchen mitts. Your videos are easy to follow and a joy to watch. You have a beautiful family always a treat to see them on a post or video.
Thank You so much. I never feel intimidated when you explain projects. It is as if you know how my brain works. Thank You for the detailed explanation.
👏👏 Very well done tutorial! You inspire, challenge and motivate me to make oven mitts and pot holders, even though I don’t cook. My husband will now be using pretty floral kitchen stuff!
I made the oven mitt and changed up the thumb area but over all it came out really well. I even had my neighbor try it on and he really liked it. Thank you for all your tutorials.
You are a great instructor! I checked out your Facebook page and you have so much going on! You're a well of ideas and a great inspiration. Thank you so much.
Hi, I found your instructions while searching for a way to make oven mitts because I was not happy with the pattern I bought. I made two yesterday and gave them as a birthday gift. Everyone loved them and thought I had bought them. I am making some for our kitchen now. Great stuff. Thank you. Cora
I watch most of your videos. Very informative. Your oven mitts are cute but you need to include a couple of layers of cotton batting to them so you followers won't burn their fingers. The insulbrite is necessary but it should be behind the 2 layers of 1oo% cotton batting. In other words lining, insulbrite, cotton batting & outside fabric. :)
Vanessa just want to let you know that I made one of the make up bags with the zipper... it was my very first bag as well as the very first zipper I have ever installed... thanks so much for your great tutorial...
Oh, my! I made this up for my 11-year-old grandson this afternoon, but didn't read any of the comments, so never thought to add batting to the mix. I hope he likes using it -- he wants to be a chef -- but mostly, I hope he doesn't burn himself.
I really liked your tutorial. I was told by someone I gave a mitt to, that it didn't protect their hands from the oven heat. OUCH! It really needs a layer of batting besides the insulbrite. That's what I'll do next time.
that was so easy to follow, the instructions were so good ugh i cant wait to try this!! i kept seeing cute oven mitts online but the reviews would say how bad they were for heat resistance so i really wanted to make my own to be sure and this vid is just great
Loved it. You made it so easy. I am a first time sewer. I tried your pot holders. Then I did the oven mit. And both turned out great instructions were easy to follow. My next project will be the zipper pouch. Keep them coming I love it
Thank you for this tutorial. I made them right away and they turned out great. Very easy to follow and very simple compared to some videos I have watched. Again thank you. I will keep watching for sure 👍😁😊
Hi! Just made my first glove and agree it didn't feel thick enough to withstand any heat! Next time will add further insulation. But great tutorial. Practice makes perfect.
think I may make some for my son for when he cooks. Maybe use some denim stitched onto the inside like a sole. I'm not sure. I am glad you shared the video though. Girls are easy to make stuff for.
Hi Vanessa I am watching from the UK. I think the heatproof wadding available in the UK is muck bulkier than the sort you use and not fusible so my oven glove was quite thick and bulky but they do work so I’m happy.
What a great tutorial. Thanks. I can’t find decent oven mitts that fit my style. I have a ton of fabric I can use. Just need the inner stuff and im ready 🥰🥰
Going out right now to get the supplies I need to make one of these this afternoon. This seems like a perfect little project to work on my beginning techniques with. I may also try some potholders so I can practice my free motion quilting.
I couldn't get the pattern to download. It's a few years since this was done so wondering if it's not available anymore. I love you easy way of doing them.
@@dcwatashi you have to follow manufacturers instruction for your batting, mine says to add a layer for cotton batting. I think hers didn't require it in the video. :)
Thank you for this video. I did feel that the size of the pattern was a little small, so I used a different pattern but followed these directions. I hate using seam binding, so I loved the finished edge.
Enjoyed making. But I found I had to go back in and stitch around the front and back mitts closer to capture all the fabric edges. It turned out great!
thank you so much for all the great videos…. Question…. Is there a way to stitch down the lining so it doesn’t bunch up on the inside? I made these and my lining is all bulked up at the tops of the mitts. It probably me, I’m new, no one likes to use the mitts I made because if that wadded up feeling at the top of the mitts. Lol. Help!
Hallo, ich bin so begeistert von deinen Videos, habe schon einige Sachen nachgenäht, verstehe kein Wort aber ich sehe ja was du machst. Danke dafür Liebe Grüße Pia
Hi Vanessa, Will be using this tute and the one you make in 2017 as well to make a couple of Christmas gifts. I like the top stitching around the cuff in the later tutorial! Thanks!
I really loved your instructions. I had already done a test run using Insul-bright for a hot pad, and decided to make the oven mitt too. i would love to share a few photos if you want them. Keep on sewing :-)
The Insul-Brite packaging says to use batting with the Insul-brite when making an oven mitt. I too have the concern of Carol that batting is maybe to be used to add another layer of heat insulation. Vanessa, I'm sure you've used these mitts without problem without the batting, yes?
I feel like it should be mentioned that an additional layer of cotton batting or cotton terrycloth is needed to further prevent the risk of burns and that a top stitch could be used to keep the lining in place. I would also suggest that a beginner could get a lot of use out of basting stitches or a basting spray when quilting and sewing all the layers together, just because I sometimes have problems with layers shifting on me even when I use pins
@@rachelnation2021 It's like a temporary glue, it just keeps the layers from moving around. It should wash out as long as you don't spray too close or too much. I would recommend using a basting stitch for the hanging loops though.
This is a great video, thank you for sharing!! I’ve read online some people saying that they couple the insulbright with cotton wadding, is this necessary? Christine
I haven't made this exact pattern, but I just made another very similar one for a present and it looked awesome, but I made the assumption that a single layer of Insul-Bright would be enough. However, when I tested it with my hand to my iron, I felt the heat very strongly within a few seconds and knew it wouldn't be enough. I tested it again touching the heat through both layers of the mitt and it was much better, but still not great. I plan to try it again probably using two layers of Insul-Bright and a thin batting.
Thank you so much for all of your tutorials! I find them so helpful and am grateful that you share your knowledge with us. You're a great teacher and I wish you continued success...

Im 70 and i learned something new! What? How EASY it is! ❤❤❤ Thank you!!
Thank you for sharing which way the batting should be used. I watched at least half a dozen tutorials, not one gave the information.

Your video on oven mitts was easy to understand. Thanks
Thank you so much! I have been searching for a housewarming gift to sew. This is perfect!

You are a PHENOMENAL teacher!
Use this vid to help me make the easy oven mitts. So helpful. Thanks

Glad to help! 🙏🏽♥️
This video made it easy for a beginner to understand. Can't wait to try it.

THANK YOU! That video was a great help. You are a wonderful teacher, Vanessa.
What a thorough, clear tutorial-thank you so much!

Once again another video I watch of yours is easy to understand and follow. I plan on trying this project out soon.
Love those clips! I discovered them a while ago, and I use them all the time!!! Good tips all the way through the project. Nice!

Nice. Love them and how well your explanation on the steps is. Can't wait to sit in my sewing machine to make a few diffetent one. Thank you.
omg thats really help thanks ill add it to my sewing keep posting
Brilliant tutorial. Going to give this a go tonight!
سلام عليكم...احب اعمالك كتيرا..لديك ذوق واتقان..تبارك الله...ارجو منكي لو سمحتي اسم ماكنة الخياطة...شكرا..keep it up👍
This is a wonderful pattern. Bought a pattern from JoAnn’s but this beat it hands down.
Thank you so much! Delighted with my oven glove- best instructions ever! X
I just found your videos. Thank you for sharing and I look forward to watching/learning!
I really loved your instructions. I had already done a test run using Insul-bright for a hot pad, and decided to make the oven mitt too. i would love to share a few photos if you want them. Keep on sewing :-)

What does a basting spray do?
@@rachelnation2021 It's like a temporary glue, it just keeps the layers from moving around. It should wash out as long as you don't spray too close or too much. I would recommend using a basting stitch for the hanging loops though.
