Insulated Over Mitt or Hot Pad
Students will complete a thick, layered fabric sandwich with special insulated batted, then use it to complete a safe oven mitt - or a hot pad with a pieced design on one side. Hot pad will be finished with a binding around the outer edge.
Skills addressed: How to make your own binding and attach binding; choosing the right needle for a job; and how to adjust your machine for sewing through thick fabric and layers.
