You are so welcome! You’re right, the little things are important too. It’s not fun when you’re stuck and you have to wait for someone to hopefully answer your question. Welcome to the creative world of sewing. I have several quick gift type tutorials plus various other tutorials sorted into playlists if you’re looking for your next project. ✂️ Happy Sewing!!
Thank you. When I first started quilting I thought I was the only one making mistakes. The blogs that I read always had perfect blocks etc. of course now I know better. Everyone makes mistakes. The key is knowing how to fix them. I don’t want a anyone thinking I’m perfect and that their items aren’t good enough. Have a great weekend.
Oh, no! Now you’ve given me one more thing to try! These cup holders are perfect for friends who commute or are on the run! No wonder I have so many WIP! 😂
My evil plan is working. Mwah Ha Ha 😆. I love a quick scrappy project. Even better when they make good gifts. Something handmade that you know they will use. 🦩
I watched your cozi coffee idea and i was trying to do it myself - before you gave the tutorial so it was great time and how to make with hair things- Again Thank you! I watch you all the time😁
Great tutorial! I love the elastic closure. My pattern called for velcro but then you had to know the exact size of your cup for the sleeve to fit properly. Your method is much more flexible.I also appreciate how you give inexpensive alternatives instead of promoting the latest tool or notion that's for sale out there. So refreshing not having to buy more 'stuff'. Although now I need to go to the dollar store and buy elastic bands. we do a white elephant exchange each Christmas with my family and this would be a perfect addition to a gift basket.
Thanks! I was taught to use what you have or make do without. Excellent life lesson but It works very well in the craft room too. I like the challenge.
Another great tutorial Robin. I don't use those cups but my daughter does :) I want to make one (or a few haha) and will try shaping the fabric pieces to go with the curve. I've seen a patchwork paper template (not that I need it) that uses dresden type pieces, so I'll work on that principal. I like both the options you showed and I have quite a few food fabrics to try out. I'll also try the scrappy method with batting & fabric but still use 2 outer fabrics - that way it will give an extra thickness against the heat. Thanks for the template link which I'm going to print out NOW - have a happy scrapitude weekend :)
Hi robin just tried to watch your WIP Wednesday Easter is coming and it says it's a private video lol is it part of the patreon or have I pressed something wrong lol xx
Hi Lise. No, you didn’t do anything wrong. I’m blaming TH-cam for this one 😆. While I was scheduling the video to post on Wednesday something happened and It was posted this morning. I pulled It down right away but not before It had 30 views. Now there’s the grey box showing that It is a private video. I’m sorry about that. WiP It Wednesday will go live Wednesday morning at 9 am as usual. Sorry about any confusion.
I thought about snaps but It might not be easy or safe to snap the sleeve on the cup. You would have to snap It and then slip It onto the cup. I was picturing hot coffee squirting out the top because the cup was squeezed when It was snapped.
Thank you for being so thorough. 68 year old beginner 2 months loves your explanations. Even the simplest things are very important. Thank you again❣️

I really like the toothpick trick. Always learn something new from Robin. Blessings.
It’s a great trick when stitching a lost button back onto a dress shirt. I tend to use a fat yarn needle but it’s the same principal.
I notice this is an older video but wanted you to know you did a great job explaining your process, and what to do if you make a mistake.❤
Thank you so much. I really appreciate your comment. 💜
i love how you show imperfections and how to fix mistakes like too close stitching to seem... thank you!!!

Scraptitude...lol. I love that. This was a great tutorial, Robin!
Great project - quick & easy. I like that you always remind us to be careful about directional fabric.
Thanks! Probably because I always forget and then I have an upside down project 🤣
I love the scrappy Coffee holder. Awesome!
Thank you for another great tutorial!
You’re welcome. Thank you for hanging out with me in my craft room.
Thanks for the idea. So glad you included a pattern. I think I will make one for chilled beverages this summer.
Gorgeous coffee sleeves! Such a thorough tutorial Robin. Thank you💕
Very cute. I love the peppers and scrapy ones. I've never thought about using a hair elastic. Great idea, Thank you. 😊
So cute with patchwork and the elastic makes it adjustable!
Great project☺. Thanks for the tip about using existing sleeve cozy as pattern.
You are an excellent teacher. Thank you🙂
Thank you so much 💜

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you 💜

Great, quick gift. I like all of them. I'm getting inspired. Thanks

I have a scrap curve project that uses that type of shape. I’m fine either way but I know some crafters prefer evenness.
Thank you for this ♥️
You’re welcome 💜
I sew my button on using non scented dental floss. It's really strong.
I was explaining the same thing to my son while sewing on one of his buttons that popped off for him. My current dental floss is mint 😉
Great job!
Great video. Looks like I may have to make some of these.
You could embroider an initial on the center possibly.
@@rsislandcrafts Great idea. I was thinking of embroidering "Coffee" on it.
Susan Pepper I was going to suggest that but I’m not familiar enough with embroidery machines to know if they can go around a curved shape like that.

@@rsislandcrafts thank you I've been having a real blonde couple of days so it wouldn't have surprised me 😁😁
I totally understand.

Would the snaps work on this too?
