Hi my name is Betty and your videos are the best . I can’t wait for more videos are great and the drying mat will be quick and easy gifts. Blessing to you and your family ❤😊
When I do a machine binding, I see the binding onto the front, then bring it around to the back. I use a glue stick and clips to hold it, placing the fabric just over the seam line from attaching the binding. Then I sew in the ditch on the front. You won’t have a random seam showing on the back.
@@thevintagestitcher2022 I hope it works for you. It’s just my OCD. I hate seeing that exposed seam. Actually, I have CDO. It’s like OCD but the letters are in order like they’re supposed to be. 🥴
Thank you so much for sharing this project. I’m a beginner sewer my husband just bought me a brother sewing machine and I needed a project. I believe I’ll start with this on. Thank you again.❤
You have encouraged me to make a mat you took your time with me and I made one. I hope you like it. I am so excited about making it that I want to keep watching you thank you so much.😅
@@sarasept4686 That would not be necessary to do because when you add the binding around it secures the fabric pieces at the top and the bottom of the mat.
Thanks so much for this tutorial. I love your, “Don’t stress, it’s ok” attitude. I’m going to make a couple of these for my counters and under my sewing machine.
I just saw this video on TV. I really enjoyed it. The don’t stress, it’s okay style you have is a welcome change. The project, the dryer mat, looks like fun. Thank you so much.
I cannot begin to tell you how awesome this is. I always wondered what I could do with those beautiful jelly rolls. Thank you so much for this tutorial. You made it look so easy and your instructions for so easy to follow. Thank you.
Great job explaining! It is a shame some folks don’t understand to fast forward if they just want to see the project making. I think you did a wonderful job🎉
Thank you soooo much…I’m a newbie and this is very good information. I paused it as soon as you said coffee ice cream. OMG it’s the best flavor ever…now back to the video. ❤
You might want to invest in a by Annie's stiletto. It fits great in the hand and allows the camera to show a bit more in those sewing machine closeups. Great video!
I have very recently saw a quilt that the woman made in 40 minutes! What she did was take a ton of scraps, stitched together on a bias (45⁰ angle) snipped the corner off, and after about 30 or 40 2 1/2 inch strips, she matched up the ends, sewed down the edge, cut it in half, and so on until her piece looked almost like a sheet for a twin bed. She didn't finish it off, but it seems you are much better than myself so perhaps you could give it a go. I lovec your video
Thank you for your kind help in making this project. I'm new at quilting things and love small projects. Right now, I'm snowed in and can't rush out to buy supplies. My "wish list" is growing. I'm so thankful to have a sewing and quilting store in our small town and the owners will usually get things that are requested if they don't have it in stock. I'm really looking forward to using a jelly roll. Terry T in Goldendale, WA.
It’s so true… 💕 I get sooo tired of looking at ugly fabric, I just stop watching…petty, I know…. But, it’s so much more fun to see someone using just upbeat, fun, beautiful more modern fabrics…l Thank you for the eye pleasing tutorials, much appreciated….looking forward to grabbing coffee and learning more with you! ❤️
You don’t know just how much you and your videos have helped me. Not just physically, but mentally as well. Your positive energy make such a difference!
Cory, I didn’t know about pressing the seam flat before pressing open. Thanks! I will try that. Videos of tips & tricks are what I enjoy! Thanks again.
Thank you! This is a great idea. I use the Dollar Tree dish mats for placements on my table. I have some in every color they have had the past 3 years. WARNING: some of them do shrink up a little. I would suggest washing the mat before sewing the fabric onto it. Now I plan to stitch jelly rolls onto some of mine this summer!! Great idea ❣️
Thank you for the video. This mat can also be made with fabric that has vegetables or fruits that pertains to canning. You can take the hot jars out of the canner and place on your mat to cool. It would make a cute gift if you know someone that cans.
I like your RUclips channel. Well informative cover the material really good I like that. And you’re fun to listen to. I noticed you make your comments to the ladies, but I’m not a lady I am a gentleman that absolutely enjoy sewing, and I love Wood Working, and I like Needles point and many other crafts. My wife doesn’t so and never has matter fact I do most of the cooking. yes I also do scroll saw and Wood turning I got me a nice big metal lathe and I do work on my vehicles and I do a lot of stuff. But I just wanted to let you know it’s not just ladies that watch your RUclips channel. And I understand it is mostly ladies that so but there’s a lot of us guys enjoy it. I get lost in it sometimes just get to sewing in time seems to pass so quick and you wonder where it goes. Thank you for your channel God be with you and bless you.
I have learned in the last couple years that there are a few men on my channel. I love it. So I try not to address only to the women. Welcome to my channel. ❤️
Thank you .just found your tutorials. I will get them all now. Thumbs up. I see these as place mats and drying mats. Love it. I cut my scraps into strips. I cut my binding strips at 2 1/4 in. It really helps to have less sewing showing on the back side. Yay 😊
Thank you for your advice about the mirror stitch I don't have that kind of sewing machine yet.thank you for sharing gifts and talents with us. God Bless you
I just found you and subscribed, you are absolutely wonderful, so fun to listen to and learn from! This is a great project for me, since I just received a Burnette sewing machine for Christmas and need a beginner project! Thanks so much, please give us more beginner cool projects like this so we can make things for our beloved family members who will love them!
Note to self: When Arttie says she has a detailed video on binding - watch it! 🤣 I made a mat using random scraps. I’m brand new to quilting. Never made a quilt, but have made some potholders and 1 quilt block wall hanging. I struggled with the binding, but learned some great lessons. I will probably use this one as a mat for my dogs dish. Really appreciate the video. 💐
Nice tutorial. To end up symmetrical on both sides, lay your first strip right on the center of the mate. Start sewing the strips from there, to the right and then to the left.
I just happened to be browsing and I saw this tutorial. What a great idea and these placemats are cheaper than buying the bosal foam. These would also make really cute placemats.
Loved this video, just found it this morning. These would be really cute to make mats for pet food bowls. This may be an idea for all the family pets for Christmas 2024. My granddaughter asked me to make her little mats to go on the water dispenser of her refrig. I think I'll make a make and cut to the size of the template then bind. I can probably get 4 or more out of a mat. Thanks for sharing.
Great, we’ll explained tutorial. I never machine stitch bindings either. But understand why you would for this project. And thank you for explanation for why you use the mirror image. 😊
Oh my goodness! This is the first time I saw a pocket binding! Mind blown ❤ also never had anyone tell me to make it a mirror stitch, makes sooo much sense! Thank you for the fun tutorial
Loved the tutorial. I am going to do some for place mats. I think I am going to strip both sides and turn it into a project bag, add a zipper. Love the video. Have a terrific week.
They are also great to put into a cookie sheet to deposit your canning hot jars on. I love those as you can use them so many ways. Thank you for this video.
Great tutorial! I know exactly what you mean about binding on the machine. I do hand stitching to avoid the "mishaps." Thanks for the tip on how to miter the corners. I really did need that. I certainly will go and view your previous videos. Thank you, again!
Thank you for the tutorial. I was thinking of doing something similar with drying mats but not for their intended use. I need to tell you a story to explain. The first time I was invited to my son and brand new bride’s home for supper, she put a drying mat in the middle of the table. Odd but ok. Next she takes her stoneware pot out of the oven and places it on the mat. I’m silently having a complete fit because the table had belonged to great-grandma. I didn’t know what to say. She left the room for a minute and I was lifting up that pot the second her back was turned. Turned out, the mat completely protected the table. Phew!!! I’m thinking that my new daughter-in-law is one smart chick. I felt safe telling her how smart she was but then she gave me a confused look. Turns out, she didn’t know what the mat was for and thought it was a casserole hot mat. This gave me the idea of making quilted casserole hot mats. I thought the mat would be too thick to sew through accurately and had planned to make a removable cover. I like your idea better. P.S. My daughter-in-law really is a smart chick.

Baby diaper changing mat is what I'm going to use it for - for gifts. TY so much for the great tutorial.
Just a thought, if you put a piece of thin rubber, plastic between the layers, could change on the backside, any leaks won’t stain the pieced top
Great idea!
Great idea, thanks so much You are very thorough
You have encouraged me to make a mat you took your time with me and I made one. I hope you like it. I am so excited about making it that I want to keep watching you thank you so much.😅
My name is Tina Austin
I couldn’t tell, did you do back stitches on top of bottom of strips?
@@sarasept4686 That would not be necessary to do because when you add the binding around it secures the fabric pieces at the top and the bottom of the mat.
This will be excellent to use for setting my jars on when they come out of the canner. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much for this tutorial. I love your, “Don’t stress, it’s ok” attitude. I’m going to make a couple of these for my counters and under my sewing machine.
Super cute! Thanks, friend!.
I love your makeover drying mats, I’ve never seen them before and who doesn’t have a extra Jelly Roll in their craft room. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for your video. I enjoyed it. 😊 I plan on making one tomorrow.

When I first saw you intro my mine went to project bag’s because it would be a lot cheaper then buying the fusible foam thanks for your inspiration
Yes. That would be perfect
Great tutorial. I never thought to make one. Going to get on it and make some for my SIL's for Xmas. Don't you love Viking sewing machines✂️🧵🪡😊😉

I’m going looking for drying mats today. I have a friend wants placemats. Great time saver for me.
My first time watching, learned a lot, thank you
Been having a tough time finding dryer mats that match my counter colors, will definitely find fabrics that perfectly match and make this! Thank you

Hello. Glad I found u. I don’t have a walking foot. Any suggestions for a substitute
Thank you really help me
Thank you so much, miter corners, yes !!!! Jane
Wow! What a great idea! Those could also be placemats. Thank you! Very pretty.
🥰🥰
Love this idea. I will use it soon. 😊
This is the perfect place to practice the binding. ❤

🥰🎃🥰🎃🥰
Great idea!
Fuuny because I was just thinking that this would make a cute mug rug or coaster.
Great idea!
I really love the easy way you demonstrated making this mat Thank you
This is a great idea! You could also you the drying mat to make coasters and see the scrap fabric in the same way you did the drying mat.
Absolutely
I love this! Thanks. I am going to make a lot of them, what great gifts!
What a great idea. A wonderful tutorial as always Arttie. Thanks for your expertise and encouragement. Much love Gail. Xx :)

This gave me the idea of making quilted casserole hot mats. I thought the mat would be too thick to sew through accurately and had planned to make a removable cover. I like your idea better.
P.S. My daughter-in-law really is a smart chick.
Absolutely. I use them as placemats also.
Another great idea for these mats.
