Things You'll Need:
- Oven mitt pattern
- Quilted heat-resistant fabric
- One-fold fabric tape
- Pins
- Scissors
- Sewing machine
-
Step 1
Select an oven mitt pattern set with variable mitt sizes. Men tend to like longer mitts, and children need smaller sizes.
-
Step 2
Pin and cut the quilted fabric to the pattern specifications.
-
Step 3
Place right sides together and sew around the perimeter of the hand portion of the mitt.
-
Step 4
Insert a hanging tab if you intend to hang your mitts up. This is generally a 3-inch double-folded and stitched piece of extra fabric. Fold this in half and sew it at the top back of the mitt inside the perimeter seam. It should form a 1-inch loop.
-
Step 5
Starting at the back top of the mitt, open the one-fold fabric tape and insert the raw fabric edge in the tape. Sew the tape through on both sides at once to create a clean and durable top edge on the mitt. Trim off any excess where the tape meets at the back seam.
