      You should experiment with where to put the strap thing. I wish I’d put it a little lower on this one so the bottom edges line up better.

    We're buying a travel trailer and this is perfect since it won't fall off while the trailer is moving. I did watch the other video, but your idea was much simpler and I like your suggestion of the ruffle on the bottom. Thanks for sharing!

    I’m going to try this with the bath size towel I keep in my guest bath to make it more difficult for my grandkids to pull the towel completely off the rod. I’m so glad I saw this before I did one of the other kitchen towel ideas that require cutting it in half. Thanks for a great idea.

      @irairod5160 2 года назад +3

      Came back to add...I also use the claw clips that are intended for hot rollers (Conair and knock-off brands have them) because they allow me to leave the towel completely extended to dry faster. The clips fit perfectly around the thick handle of my oven, and to beautify them, I covered them in fabric.

    When turning a right angle or otherwise sharp corner to the right side, bevel the seam allowance, and then hold the corner between the thumb and forefinger exactly at the corner, and then turn inside out. By holding the corner between the thumb and forefinger, the seam allowance has less chance to bunch up, and there is less need to poke it out with a poking tool. This comes from both shirt making and tailoring. I sometimes reinforce the corner with a small triangle of thin iron on interfacing, depending on how much stress or wear is anticipated for the corner when it is in use.

    @susanmei9980 Год назад +1

    I like this. I think I might try a version that keeps the towel flat.
    FYI: I usually put a sewing clip on my towels (just under the oven handle bar) to keep the towel on. Used to use two, one on each side, but one broke. 😂 One works just as well, so if anyone is short on time. . .
    I also don’t care for the towels with toppers for another VERY practical reason: It makes the towel hang down farther, so when you open the oven door it drags on the floor! 😮😱

    • @timothytotten9409
      @timothytotten9409  10 месяцев назад

      Im not quite sure what you’re asking. If you want to center the fabric on the towel rather than off center, you’ll just end up with ends that don’t line up at the bottom when you put the towel on. That’s why I offset where the fabric was added. If I haven’t understood the question, please let me know.
