Let's make the Perfect Oven Mitt!--- not too tight, not too long, not too loose, not too stiff, not too complicated. Download my free pattern and we'll walk through all the steps together! Then you'll want to make a pair for everyone you know. Grab the pattern here on my site (it's free!): www.madeeveryday.com/oven-mitt/
*NOTE: my pattern piece recommends an additional layer of QUILT BATTING (so you have 4 layers total). This is in addition to what is shown in this video. You may chose to add this or not. It will make the project slightly more bulky to sew. But the added layer is nice for ample heat protection on your oven mitt.
SUPPLIES NEEDED for 1 OVEN MITT:
• 1 Fat Quarter (or 1/4 yard) of fabric for the outer layer
• 1 FQ (or 1/4 yard) of fabric for the lining layer
• 1 FQ (or 1/4 yard) of Quilt Batting* (see not above) (cotton or other batting)
• 1 FQ (or 1/4 yard) of "Quilted Ironing Board Cover" fabric (or other similar fabric)
• Small amount of ".5 inch wide, extra wide double fold bias tape" -- you can purchase in pre-made packets at the fabric store, or make your own! (see video link below)

You make me want to sew more especially with the wonderful colors you use in your projects! God Bless you for sharing your multiple gifts of creativity 🥰
Awww thank you so much! 😀I hope you have fun sewing! - Dana
love your videos thank you
Thanks so much!
You are always so upbeat. You had me at “not a fan of the crinkly stuff”. Thanks for the tip on alternative batting. Love your use of the bias tape for the loop. Can’t wait to make
😂😂😃 Thanks! I can’t stand the sound… unless it’s for a crinkly dog toy or a baby sensory blanket. But not in my oven mitts! 😂
Thank you "SEW MUCH" Dana!
Haha thanks!
I love your videos. You seem so wholesome and sweet 😊
Hahah. Thanks! :) - Dana
I use basting spray to keep my layers from shifting
Thank you for the free pattern and detailed instructions. Which marking pen did you use?
I love the top you are wearing. Could you please do a video on how to sew that? I am pretty new to sewing and can't figure out how I could make that. I love your channel. Thanks.
Thank you so much!! haha. That yellow top is from Walmart I think! I should show you how to make sleeves like that. I'll have to add it to the list of projects....the long list. haha. Thanks for watching! - Dana
Good Morning Dana, you have inspired me - thank you. Now I want to watch all your videos. Please post a link to the ironing board quilting fabric you used. Thanks and Happy Holidays.
Awesome! I'm glad you're excited to sew! Yes, the fabric I used is from Joann Fabrics, but you can use something similar from other shops. Here's what I used: www.joann.com/quilted-ironing-board-cover-fabric/5987888.html
Love the idea and helpful video!! I learn better from watching. You actually got me into sewing and buying my babylock only "knowing" you. One question with the added note of adding batting. Where would i put that in the quilt sandwich?? Thanks again for all the projects!!
hahah. Thanks for watching! Add the quilt batting somewhere in the middle. I would do lining fabric, quilt batting, silver heat fabric, outer fabric. Hope that helps! :) - Dana
OK - not quite a Christmas Stocking but I'll forgive you. Thank you so much for doing these videos. Love from the UK. 🇬🇧
Hahaha. You're right! I should have done a Christmas stocking! Next year :) Thanks Richard!
@@MADEEveryday A tartan one, please, for your Scottish followers.
@@no-wire-hangersthat would be amazing! Btw, I made a tartan garland for my husbands 50th bday last week and need to share it on Instagram 😃 You would appreciate it, I hope! 🥰
@@MADEEveryday Very much so. I look forward to seeing it.
Hi. I love your work. What kind of tread did you used? Please and thank you.
Try using a walking foot for all those layers. Makes it easy.
Excellent video! What size of needle did you use and what type of sewing foot? Thanks!
Thanks for the video. Do you think an old towel would work ok for the lining? I don't want to throw the towels away!
These are cute! I'd also recommend using cotton thread so theres no chance of the thread melting.
Good recommendation. Thanks!
Hi Dana, I was looking for oven mitts on you tube and I found your video and I would like to sew it.I have a question :When stitching all fabrics together , do you use over lock machine so the fabric won't fray?
Would you want to use a walking foot for all those layers or does it come out even without it? I have a Brother machine that is the same as your Babylock!
Could you sew the bias tape on the fabric before it is finished?
Yes, you can definitely do that....there are multiple ways to sew attach the bias tape. I thought this would be the easiest method, with the most polished finish. But another way is to sew one of the "side seams" of the oven mitt first , then sew the bias tape to the entire bottom of the two pieces, then sew the rest of the oven mitt together, sewing the other "side seam". The only negative to that is that the side seam is a bit exposed at the opening of the oven mitt. That's why I prefer sewing the bias tape at the end...so it nicely binds the seams inside. Hopefully that makes sense! But just experiment and you'll find which method you like best.
Should I pre wash the ironing fabric?
Yes. You can prewash fabric. Sorry I forget to mention that at times in my videos! If you're going to do that, I would pre-wash/dry ALL the layers you plan to use, so they all "preshrink" :)
Thank you for the cute pattern. I have seen several patterns online and they all seem to have the same problem...the thumb is too short, which makes it difficult to grip a hot pan securely, because you can't bend your thumb. I apologize if this is a silly question but, how can your pattern be adjusted so folks with long fingers get a proper fit in the thumb area?
Oh good! I'm you like the pattern. You can definitely adjust longer for different needs! I would draw the line of the thumb area out about a 1/2 inch or longer on the paper after you print it. This might take a little trial and error, trying it a few times to get it where you'd like for yourself. But I think that's a fun adventure :) Something to keep in mind is that the "finished" thumb will be longer than how it looks on the pattern piece, since you're sewing into the fabric with your seam allowance. Hopefully that makes sense! Have fun sewing! - Dana
If this is for a man’s use should I make it bigger all the way around? Would I just add like 1.5 inches around the border? How thick batting do you use? And what fabric is the outer and lining made of? Thank you for your wonderful videos and help.
I had my husband try these out and they worked for him too! But if you're worried about that, yes, you can add an extra 1/2 inch all the way around on the pattern. It might take a little trial and error, like it did for me trying out all those versions :)
One more question, should we wash the fabric before quilting it together? Thanks.
Yes. You can prewash fabric. Sorry I forget to mention that at times in my videos! If you're going to do that, I would pre-wash/dry ALL the layers you plan to use, so they all "preshrink" :)
The blog post and this video really need to say that you need extra wide double fold bias tape… I just bought regular double fold bias tape and what you have is definitely the wider version.
Sorry about that. Yes, I will include that information! That’s typically the kind that I use and talk about that in my bias tape video. But I will remember to specify that! I appreciate the input.
@@MADEEveryday I was able to go back and exchange, so I have the right kind now!
PS. Your zipper pouch tutorial taught me how to sew zippers!
@@ashleywalker2611 Oh good! Sorry about that! I just added that detail into the video and tutorial. Also, when you print the pattern (if you printed before tonight at 11pm, go back and grab the updated version), I added a note on there that you can add an additional layer of quilt batting in your oven mitt, in the "quilt sandwich". This is optional, and will make it slightly more bulky to sew...but you might like that ample heat protection. Either way is fine, just wanted to add that tid bit in there! :)
@@MADEEverydaythank you for this! I happened to find an oven mitt that was small and fit my hand (I have small hands), and traced around it for a pattern. But the area between thumb and fingers wasn’t so good. I’m sure yours will work really well.
Oh Dana 🤣
Q.
I see a lot of sewists trim around the curves of a project with regular scissors 🤔I was just wondering why nobody suggests pinking sheers 🤔 is it or, does it just depend on the thickness, type of fabric, personal preference ??? 🤷🏻♀️just curious because or, what is the purpose pinking sheers?
Hi! That's a great question...yes, you can definitely use pinking shears. And you're right, that is the concept---to trim around with scissors that cut in a zigzag pattern so the fabric edges are less likely to fray over time. So yes, in theory, it's all yes. hahah. But in reality, I hate using them. There. I said it! They're hard to cut with, hard to cut through all those layers. And I don't find that my fabric edges fray very much anyway (even when I make clothing, like shorts, skirts, etc). But you should give them a try and see how you like them! It's all just personal preference. I hope that answers your question! Thanks for watching and chiming in :)
Dana
What's the name of the card stock you buy? Please.
I just buy cardstock at a place like Office Depot or staples….or Michael’s and Hobby Lobby!
@@MADEEveryday Great! Thanks so much for all you share. I use your instructions a lot. Pillows, quilts and so on. Now oven mitts.😃
Too much Bla Bla Blas!
haha. Sorry! I hope you try making one!
@@MADEEveryday thanks for offering the pre-pattern but nobody has an hour to sit around and listen to all of the talk.
That was a nice 25 min break for me from sewing. I appreciate that you went to great lengths to figure out the best pattern. Thank you that I can just download a free perfected pattern and sew it up with a great instructional video 👏. Also, you are adorable. I love your hair and I love that sweater matching the project and the pink checkered wall is a refreshing, non-tense environment to learn in.
@@mammaubear8647 Thank you so much! And thanks for noticing all the details :) You are sweet. I hope you have fun sewing lots of oven mitts! - Dana
@@MADEEverydaythanks Dana! I'm with momma bear. ❤
