That’s the best mitered corner video I’ve seen. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Love that this process doesn't require extra cuts and sewing for the mitered corners like other tutorials I have seen and used!
You can cut off the corner where I did the first fold across the squares and it will make the corner less bulky, but this works too.
I haven't made napkins for a few years, and lately I wanted to make more, but couldn't remember how to miter the corners. So of course I turned to RUclips, I sewed 4 napkins with the mitered corners done 3 different ways, I wasn't really happy with how they were done, they turned out nice, I just didn't like how to get them there, finally I came across your video 😊, and I'm so glad I did, your way makes the most beautiful miters, in the easiest way possible, so I will do all my miters this way from now on.
Thank You so much for sharing your time, and your talent with all of us.

I’ve been looking for a good tutorial on making napkins and I finally found yours. I love this you’ve made it so simple. Thank you!!
You are so welcome!
I'm always trying to find ways to be eco friendly and never even thought about cloth napkins! I have so much left over quilting cotton that I'm going to get started making these napkins for my family. Thank you so much for sharing your ideas and your fabulous tutorials.
You are so welcome!
I hadn't thought to move my needle over when sewing the sides. Thank you!
Glad it's helpful!
Mind blown! Those mitered corners are perfect and exactly what I’ve tried to make for years and have never accomplished until this video!! Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Glad I could help!
Excellent tutorial!!! Simple, precise directions for the mitered corners. Thanks for sharing!❤
Thanks for watching!
I just sewed up some napkins using your techniques and they look awesome! Since I'm not really a sewer it was super easy. I'm gifting a few to my friend too. Thank you for sharing your craft!❤
Glad you like them!
VERY GOOD! Your 'grid' explanation helped me very much
Wonderful!
Wow! I've always assumed that mitered corners are tricky, but your tutorials make everything easier. You've certainly inspired me to stop using paper napkins. One more use for those I can think of: reusable gift wrap (especially if made from some cute fabric). On a side note: love your t-shirt:D have a great holiday season!
Thanks! And yes, they could be great gift wrappers too!
I like your miter corner technique.
Thanks
Thank you for mentioning the type of material best for cloth napkins. Great tutorial!
Thanks for watching!
Great video and instructions! Very clearly stated, and shown with good lighting!
Glad you liked it!!
Cloth napkins make a great holiday gift or hostess gift. I use a double layer of fabric just in case of future food stains. Thanks for sharing this awesome sewing idea♥
Great idea!!
Thanks Thank You lots and lots I've been watching tutorials for 2 hours now I can stop. Subscribing now
Thanks for subbing!
OMGosh. Thank you so much for the beautifully explained n the grids you penned. If seen many. They either go a bit too fast or are unclear. But I finally understand.
Glad it was helpful!
This video is FANTASTIC!!!!! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great tutorial, thank you! I’ve been looking for a tutorial to teach me this that’s clear and straight forward, so thank you 😊
Thanks for watching!
Thank you Melly. This is a great idea. Excellent demo!
Glad you like it!
Love this method! Thank you for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!
OMG! Melissa, thank you! So much easier than all of the extra finicky, cutting stuff. I still have some fine-tuning--despite using a seam gauge, a couple of my corners didn't line up perfectly (a teeny gap at the mitered part), but they still look nice and even everywhere else. Woohoo!
And napkins are a great place to practice since no one notices slightly imperfect corners on these :)
You said it
Such a good tutorial! Thank you Melly
Glad you like it!
wow! that was so well explained and fantastic visuals so it is really easy to figure out! so glad i found your video! great idea to use and make your own pressing guide! thank you so much!

Thank you so much! I’ve been wanting to make these🌸
You’re welcome 😊
Amazing I’m going to make some napkin this is very helpful thanks!
Have fun!
Omg if I took one thing away from this video, it was to use a edge to make an even fold for pressing.
It's a pretty useful trick.
Yes! What a simple and quick solution for getting the hems even! And love your technique for the corners! Thank you!
Thanks Melly very handy. Cheers Mary

🎉Great video. I've always had trouble with mitered corners. I made 6 napkins and got enough practice to not forget!😅
That's great!
Exactly what I was looking for 😂❤❤❤
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much!!
You're welcome!
Nice! How do you move the needle over on a mechanical machine? I have the brother st371hd
You'd need to consult your machine manual to see if that's an option.
I’m not sure What fabric should I buy at my fabric store.
Duck cotton; cotton linen; cotton canvas? Thank you; your instructions were excellent!
Those are all thicker fabrics. The ones in this video are 100% cotton quilting fabric.
I just made my first napkins ever. How in the world do I remove oil stains from napkins which I can forecast will be after every dinner. I’m not afraid of scrubbing either.
I just wash mine in hot water 🤷🏻♀️
