I just wanted to say I love this tutorial! I’m a 52yr old man who never sews and I used your video today to make an awesome cover. I took an old T-shirt with a slogan on the front and turned it inside out, measured my vessel, added 2 inches all the way around, stitched it up the way you taught me, then cut out the circle and ditched the rest of the shirt, removed 2 inches off the elastic, and flipped everything right side out to reveal a cool cover with the T-shirt printed logo now on the top of the cover. I’m so grateful for patient souls like yours.
I like to snip the seam all the way around and that helps it sit nicely when turned out.
Made these 30+ years ago... loved them... then the practice went by the wayside with plastics... great earth friendly... thank you
Thank you. I prefer these over plastic but understand that people want quick and easy with plastic wrap
You could even pin four pieces of fabric (different designs) together and cut down on cutting. Just cut the four pieces and your ahead and ready for the next cover.
absolutely!
I needed a cover for my bread dough while it's rising and this is perfect. Your'e teaching style is clear and easy to follow, great video. Thank you!
You are so welcome! Thank you so much Kate I appreciate that :)
I am finding it very hard to cover my bread bowl. It's a great idea but to cover a decent size bowl it would be hard to find a bowl 4" bigger I have even measured my turkey fryer and it is only 13.5 I need 14.5 hahaha I love the idea tho - did it work out for you? what bowl did you find to use?
@@countryannescreations1005 Just use a cord while holding in in te middle of the circle.
Recommend you wash the fabric first as it may shrink after washing then not fit. Also clip the curved seam about every inch before turning which will help the seam sit flat quickly.
Gratitude for the lesson. Blessing.
You are so welcome!
Skip the pins leave the bowl on use rotary cutter to trim around it 😉
Good tip! Thank you. Some people aren't that familiar with using rotary cutters so I just want to make sure people stay safe. But for sure good tip :) thank you for sharing
The edge seam fabric will lay more flat once turned right side out if you clip from edge to within 1/8” of the seam about every 1”. You will still be able to easily feed the elastic through the channel. I learned that in home ec in junior high almost 60 years ago. 😉 👍
There are many bowl cover videos out there but yours was the best no nonsense approach. Clear and concise. Love it. How would you alter the directions if you didn’t want it to be flat across. Like when using it for making bread you’d want room on top for expansion. Thank you.
Nice. I find thru experience I use a safety on the other end of the elastic and pin it to the ending so you don’t lose it. And it was easy to do I’ve had to redo plenty of elastic thru casings. .
Great tip! Thank you
Me, too! How nice of you to share the tip!
Love this video. Thanks!
Thank you :)
Love it thanks
You explain things very well. Thank you 😊
Oh thank you. That’s very sweet.
Thanks! Now, back to the scoby. ☺️
Nice thank you
I. I’m going to do this
Love this tutorial. Where did you get that safety pin? Thank you!
can't wait to make some . . . but they are going to be a gift. . . hope the size I make will work for the recipient as it's a secret santa exchange
What a sweet gift!
I like the 11” glass bowl that you used. I’m slowly replacing all of my plastic containers in the kitchen and finding the larger glass bowls are the hardest. So that one in your video looks perfect. Would you mind sharing where you purchased it please? Thank you in advance.
I often find them at Goodwill or Salvation Army thrift stores. I’m doing the same and hoping it’s not too little too late. Good luck on your search.
Great tutorial! I'm wondering why you don't skip the bother of sewing the elastic and just tie a double knot instead? I used to make hair scrunchies (way back in the day) and I always just tied elastic in a knot, they never came undone.
Hi there...This is a genius idea - especially for left-over fabric cuts - thank you. Will you please tell me what that "guide" is on the right hand side of your sewing machine faceplate? That is awesome! I'm using way too sticky masking tape now and it's driving me nuts.
Thanks!
Oh yes! I think it’s listed in the description box below the video. But it’s a magnetic seam guide. Totally fabulous. Just don’t use on computerized sewing machines! I’ve heard the magnets throw off the timing
Thank you for doing this video.
I'm sick of using towels for things like bread dough, etc..
Came from your kombucha video. I'm about to try it for the first time. I'm going to try the store bought, and go from there. I've had tummy issues (for some reason when I eat salad and bell peppers now I get horrible heartburn and my tummy just burns), hoping if I try to detox my body a bit, that it will help.
Any recommendations for first time kombucha? I've heard you aren't supposed to drink a lot of it, when starting. What would you start with? I have no idea how much you drink/sip at a time.
Thank you!
💗
Well it’s super beneficial for your gut. It’s got so many good healthy bacterial and does amazing things for your body.
The first time I tried it, I honestly didn’t love it. But my first experience was with a super greens kombucha which was spiralina, wheat grass and so for me-I wasn’t a fan and never planned to drink it again. Then a year or so later my acupuncturist recommended it to me (different flavor) and I’ve been on my journey since.
So for me-I’d stay away from the green ones-unless you love the taste of wheat grass.
I’d personally try a GT brand kombucha-they are my favorite. Flavors I love: trilogy, mango madness, watermelon, cosmic cranberry, guava goddess and they have a limited edition one
That’s bright blue (can’t remember the name of it) but it is amazing!!!!! Check the ingredient list and you’ll see what fruits are in them (this helps). Try ones that sound good to you. I’d start with maybe 8oz and see how you do. I drank a whole bottle right from the start. But start small. Drink 6-8oz and see how you feel.

Thank you!
I've picked a couple of the ones you've suggested and also a couple different ones, because I do love different teas.
Thank you for the advice. I'll keep you posted!

The skin of peppers are high in lectins. You need to roast an peel and they should be kinder to you x
@@private_joy
Thanks for that tip!
Can I use a cotton fabric!? Or does it have to be Linen??? I'm going to starts my first kombucha Scoby and I am very excited!
Linen or cotton both work. Just a breathable fabric :)
Happy brewing!!!
I as well came from your kombucha video. Space is tight where I live, do you sell covers like this or know where I can get one for a 1.5gal jar and a 1 gal?
I dont sell my covers (yet). I have considered it since so many people are asking. You can use a towel and a rubberband or a tea towel to cover your brew. Ill keep you posted if I decide to sell them
Can we use a tshirt for the fabric? Or does it have to be a specific kind of fabric?
Ok but where is your ring from?!
Do you sell those? I have MS and cant make those ma'am
sadly i dont make items to sell. I did try a long time ago but have had requests for things that I've made so I may sell them in my etsy shop
Do these work for foods that need to be refrigerated, like leftovers? I would think they'd let the air through
I use clean shower caps for those bowls. For large bowls/containers, use a piece of plastic in between or as the second piece of fabric.
@@mclrose7 oh, those are good ideas! Thanks
My elastic ended up way to small. Like not even close. Now if i subtract 2 inches from the circumference, its perfect. 🤷♀️
Great tip; thanks much!
Do you ever wax these?
I haven’t waxed these. When using them for fermenting, you need the air to be able to move through it. But you could for sure wax them if you are strictly using them as bowl covers, and not fermenting covers
