Oven Mitt sewing pattern with optional quilting
I had so much fun pairing two different fat quarters and some pink scraps for this oven mitt. I decided to not quilt the oven mitt, but this can be added during the sewing process and there’s a note about this in the instructions.
I’ve always been a little nervous about making an oven mitt, but this was such a fun process. It’s not hard at all, and it’s so great for protecting your hand from heat! My kids have loved using it again and again!
I love the contrast bias binding edge. It’s such a fun detail, and the matching loop makes hanging up the oven mitt so easy.
What fabric should I use for a oven mitt?
The best fabric to use for a oven mitt is quilting cotton. Cotton is best for heat, and quilting cotton is easy to find and easy to sew. There are so many fun colors and prints you can use.
What batting should I use for a oven mitt?
It’s very important to use cotton batting for anything that will be exposed to a lot of heat. I used two layers of cotton batting for this oven mitt, and it works perfectly. Alternatively, you can use insul-bright for this sewing project.
