I loved learning about the loop , and folding the " far end" of the corner on the binding first- brilliant ❤
I love the easy way you put on the binding. Your voice is very gentle and calm. As I get nervous when sewing. Ty for the tips and illustrations.

Happy New Year!
Great instructions... Some of those little pieces of instructions to you are second nature. But, to some of us just learning they are so helpful...
I loved the video and I especially liked your soothing voice as you sewed. it was very relaxing and I learned a few things I didn't know. Thank you. Please do more sewing videos.
The best potholder video I have seen. I learned a lot from this video.
Beautiful work
Tucking the loop is a great way to finish off. Once again, you are wonderful!
This just popped up in my feed, and although I’ve been making quilts for 40 years, I learned “a better way” to do the bindings, so thank you for this! I’d been making potholders and that darn loop confounded me 🤔.
I found that when I’ve finished with a quilt, I make several extra blocks to use for potholders. It’s a nice little “langnappe” (a little something extra).
Thank you!
Great idea about turning an extra quilt block into a potholder. Glad you like the video. Please subscribe to be notified when I post new stuff. Happy Quilting :)
@brenda5511 love your modesty. “Learn something new everyday “
Thank you for the clear and concise tutorial. I put bindings on needle books and project bags and now I can add a loop without having to add it separately.
This was one of the best videos for pot holder binding. Thank you! I learned many tips to make my binding better.
Great video. I like how you tucked the end of the loop between the fabric.
Thankyou for your time and sharing your video,the pot holders are gorgeous,i should have the cups and a teapot somewhere in my many treasures so will definitely make them , Cheers 🥂 from Australia 🌏🦘 Adelaide ❤❤
Folding the binding in half is the best way, thanks for the reminder. 🇨🇦
Great tips Fontana! Thank you for sharing this, you add so much peace and joy to quIĺting!
Good morning from another Bernina lover. Just found your site this morning while looking for different ways to make potholders. I have decided to make set of cross back apron, oven mitt, potholders and bowl cozzies (3 sizes) for cooks in my family for Christmas.That is 6 sets. I better get started today. I might do some quilt block to use as potholders and also some machine embroidery. Well, I did not mean to write a book, just wanted to let you know how much I like your method. I look forward to watch a marathon of your podcast.
Ellie.
I love the way you made this. Thank you for sharing. God bless. 😊❤❤
I'm making potholders also and loved the tutorial on the loop in the binding. I also learned about the mark on the walking foot for the 1/4", and a better way to fold the binding at the corners. Thank you for all the tips.
Very good video thank you. The choice of fabrics is lovely, bright and cheerful. Thanks for the tip on creating the loop hanger too.
You’re a good teacher! I learned several handy things here. Thank you so much for sharing :-)
Great demonstration on the binding! Thank you!
Thanks, so much! You've really simplified the process for me! Perfect for my gnome die! 😊
What a potholder. SO PRETTY

This is a great method for potholders, I certainly will be trying this in the near future, my siblings always love potholders as little happy gifts. Thanks for sharing your expertise with us. Your potholders are beautiful.
I like the tuck. It's 👏 brilliant. I will try it
A great tutorial of the binding process. Learnt a couple of new steps from you. Great to watch. Thankyou😊
Thank you for sharing your video. You have given very clear directions on how to make potholders and finishing the loop. I'm definitely going to make some in the near future.😊
Fantastic tutorial. Thank you
'That you for a very nice precise job of doing a binding and loop! ☺
Thank you for making this easy! Love your hints!❤
You are most welcome! Glad you found the video helpful. Please share with your "quilty" friends and subscribe to my channel so you will be notified when I post new videos. Happy New Year!
@@fontanaoriginals I will most certainly do that. I really enjoy your creativity with the AccuQuilt dies. I admit to being an addict and just love combining the dies or parts to create something new.
I really enjoyed this video..easy to follow, great tips & soothing to listen to ❤ Thanks for sharing.
I’m new at sewing so this is helpful for me thanks yours looks so cute
Brilliant! I’ll give it a try. I have a machine w/ no idea what knob makes stitches longer or tension right, but I’ll figure it out!
Hi Maryann, so enjoy your creativity!
Thanks so much! Please share my site with your "quilting" friends and ask them to subscribe. Happy Quilting :)
Very cute!
Thanks for this
Can you explain why you started sewing 1/4” down when sewing the binding down. I know to stop 1/4” way from edge but never heard of starting 1/4” from edge AFTER riding the binding down
Thank you
Thank you for a great video. Any chance you could show more of the GO template and how to use it to make the appliques?
Where do I get the coffee cup decals from?
Accuquilt
Best binding tutorial I've seen yet thank you so much sweetheart😊
That is, your own coffee cup decals
Cute
Great video 😂😂😂
I would have loved to learn how to do the tea cups
The teacups are appliques that I cut from an AccuQuilt cutting die. There are no directions for this decoration....sorry :(
Love the coffee cup, is their a pattern available
No pattern, sorry. The coffee cups are an applique die from AccuQuilt. It is called Coffee & Tea medley.
thank you!!
I don't usually see pot holders with pockets, wondering what you use the pockets for?
I use the pocket to slip my hand in so the potholder acts like a glove. Insulbrite it put in the pocket section as well as the potholder section so it insulates your hand on both sides.
Hello Ms Fontana, love your tutorial. just learning how to sew and use my sewing machine. how do you make your "appliques"? love to learn how to make that too... lol.... want to learn a lot. thank you.
I use cutting dies from AccuQuilt
@@fontanaoriginals thank you!!
I'm
Did l miss it..but did you give measurements for anything..well at the end..🇨🇦
Not sure what you are asking me. How can I help?
Pauline beginning of video all measurements are mentioned
Would love to make these but where do we get the cup/saucer template? More detailed information would be appreciated. Thank you. They are beautiful!
Thanks for reaching out! The cut and saucer are from a cutting die that AccuQuilt makes. My demo was focused on how to add the binding to a potholder in general and I just happened to be working on a project for them. You can find the pattern to make the potholders on AccuQuilt.com but they do not offer a template for the cup and saucer just sell the cutting die. Have a nice day :)
I cannot hear your voice very well at all but your potholders look beautiful
Where to get the coffee and tea design from?
Kelly
The pattern is available as a free download at AccuQuilt.com
Hello: really good!! How many layers of insul-Brite?
I used two layers for each potholder.
Au moins vous avez du goût ❤
Where can I purchase the coffee and tea medley pattern?
Go to AccuQuilt.com. The pattern was designed for them.
Is your binding cut on the bias?
No, it is not. No need to since there aren't any curved surfaces :)
Why do you finish the edges like that…is it sewn with a server?
I decided not to buy the $20ish dollar quilter walking foot. Is it possible to do this project without it?
You can! I would suggest pinning the 3 layers (fabric/batting/backing) to keep them from moving while you sew. Use a longer stitch length than you normally would to allow for the bulky layers.
Oops you just said it was using a serger why do you do this?
I serge the quilt sandwiches as it keeps all the layers together and makes is so much easier to add the binding. I have tried just pinning as something always seems to slip and I end up ripping out . If you do not have a serger you can just sew a scant 1/4 seam allowance all the way around the four sides to keep the layers together. If I do that I will often sew another row of zig zag stitches between the raw edge and the seam line you just sewed. It acts as if it has been serged.
When you fold your biding over you are sewing a raw edge of the binding to the back. This is absolutely going to begin to fray every time you wash this potholder. In 25 years of quilting I have never seen anyone do this and I would not recommend it to anyone watching this.
There are no raw edges. Everything is folded twice. If you sew your seams as shown it will not fray. Perhaps you are just not understanding my process.
And I do recommend this technique to everyone as it works!
Happy Quilting 😊
Great video! Thank you so much!!
