- Hello and welcome to my channel
Hope you have enjoyed joining me today for making a new ironing board cover.
Making something as simple as this can really brighten and change an item in your home - it's easy to do and quick!!! So it's a win win!
If you fancy joining me on instagram - my account can be found here :

So for this sew along you will need :
Tracing paper
pens/pencils
Ruler/seam gauge
pins or wonder clips
Cotton fabric
Bias binding - I used 1" / 2.5cm wide
Elastic - I used 3/8" / 1cm wide
Fabric and Paper scissors
Heat Proof Wadding - which you can purchase here :
www.amazon.co....
In addition to this you will need your sewing machine and thread.
1) Begin by laying your ironing board on your tracing paper - and trace around
2) Now using your ruler add 7.5cm / 3" around the original traced line
3) Cut this out and trace this onto your chosen cotton fabric
4) Open one side of the bias tape and pin right sides together around the outer edge of your cotton fabric - at the start fold back 1" of the tape, at the end repeat and fold back 1"
5) Stitch using the crease of the bias tape as a guide
6) Fold the bias tape over to the wrong side of the fabric
7) Stitch on the inner edge a few mm from the edge of the bias tape
8) Using a safety pin, thread your elastic through the channel you have created
9) Secure in plece once full threaded through with a safety pin
10) Either trace around your ironing board frame or your original heat proof wadding onto your new wadding and cut out.
11) Finish by laying the new piece of wadding on your frame and covering with your new cover. Adjust the elastic so it is tight.
And you have finished!!!! you are now the owner of a shiny new lovely ironing board cover!
Thanks again for joining me.
Have a good week, and happy sewing
Take care

Hi Angela I really enjoyed your video who would have thought it was so simple to do I will definitely be doing one for myself thank you 😊 Dawn xx
That's really great - Thank you 🥰
Thanks Angela, a really good tutorial. Shop bought covers never sit perfectly on my ironing board, custom made will be so much better, and likely cheaper!
You are so welcome! Thank you 🥰
I like how you did the elastic channel with the bias tape. I'll be doing this! Thank you.
Really glad you liked it - thank you 🥰

Thank you Angela, great instructions, I’ll be using this ❤
Thank you 🥰
Thanks Angela, since my ironing board needs a new cover and because it’s extra large I have hunted high and low for one without success, I will make one instead. Thanks for sourcing the flame retardant interfacing. Great job!
Aahh that’s great - Glad it was helpful!
Thank you 🥰
Very well done! You did a great job showing and explaining the process. Thank you, Angela! ❤ Diann

Great vlog ill have a go when I need a new ironing board cover xx
That’s great - Thank you 🥰
I'm inspired to give my ironing board a new, fresh looking cover like yours! Thank you!!
Yay - Go for it! Thank you 🥰
Thank you so much.
Thank you ☺️
Thanks Angela, I’ve had the fabric to do mine for ages so you have just given me the push I needed to order the wadding!
Yay! You’re welcome 😊good luck with it
Thank you 🥰
I'm not sure how I manage to ruin my ironing board covers so quickly! I've always purchased store-bought ones. I wanted to pick one up yesterday, but the least expensive cover in our local Joann store (I'm in the US) is $50! That is insane and I'm just not willing to pay so much for 'fabric' that I can't even wear! 😂SO your video is so timely! Thank you.
My goodness that is expensive!!! Aahh hope you manage to see one up ☺️
Thank you 🥰
Fab tutorial!!! ❤
Cheers Katie 🥰
Hi Angela! Great tutorial 👍 can I ask what weight of wadding did you use and how much did you purchase? Thank you 😊x
Thank you 🥰 I did buy this a long time ago. so I am not 100% sure what weight I got - I would say though to go thicker than thinner for a nicer feel ironing board cover - if that makes sense.
I probably just bought around 1 meter / 1.5 meters. I have an annoying bit left over that doesn't fit anything 😂
Hope that helps - sorry I can not be more specific xx
You must have known that my iron went through my cover when I was ironing a project the other night 😂
Noooooo!!!! Aaah it’s horrible when that happens isn’t it!!!
Hope you are able to have a go at making your own ☺️☺️ xx
God Bless...!!!
You too
Hi Angela. I'm a big fan of yours love your videos, I'm quite new to sewing and I have learnt the hard way by cutting into the original pattern, could you please advise me on what's the best tracing paper to use, I'm thinking something that is easy to fold and store, hope you don't mind me asking. Val xx
That’s so kind of you - thank you so much.
If you are after tracing paper that folds up nicely you can’t go wrong with the packs of Burda tracing paper :
