In this stitch along I show you how to make the lovely towel topper that comes as part of the oven mitt set. In this version there is no sewing involved it is made completely in the hoop from start to finish. The towel will be completely removable and I show you how to add an extra fabric to change the flavour a little.
You will need to know how to skip backward and forwards through a designs colours on your machine. It will be in the user manual or you can most certainly find a You Tube video showing you.

I can’t live without my sharp stabby tool as I call it, is a clay sculpting tool. I bought it in my local craft shop. Amazon do sell them as part of a clay sculpting set but not individually.
All my other supplies are from Amazon including my large squizzors. They are actually aquarium precision pinch action scissors.
I use H2O gone FSL water soluble stabilizer or Brothread cut away stabilizer for my stitch outs.
Happy stitching!

Love the idea of the elastic. You wont have to wash the topper as much and it will stay looking newer.
Thanks Hugh. It is a bit more practical in my book, if it were attached it would get in my way. Thanks for watching.
I i love it your instructions are so clear and easy to follow. The elastic on the back is a great idea. going to KIki and get my design thanks so much
You are so welcome! Happy stitching.
I use a makeup sponge now to remove the excess stabilizer and works great. Can be used over and over . Thank you again I need these tutorials.
You're welcome pleased they help you. Happy stitching!
Oh I LOVE this! Your videos are awesome! I don’t think I would try so many things without your help! Thank you sooo much!
You're welcome pleased you enjoy them.
Thank you for sharing this to us.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching. Happy stitching.
Fabulous SAL, Kay. Your fabrics are beautiful for this project. Thank you sew much for sharing this version with the elastic. Angel huggers!!
Thanks Mary take care x
Masking tape?? Fantastic. I spent a lot of money on name brand pink tape which I do not like.
Why had I never thought of something so basic! Thank you.....
lol Because sometimes the obvious isn't so obvious. Happy stitching!
Your videos are fantastic. I love your voice too. Thank you so much.

Thanks Yvonne pleased you enjoy them. Thanks for watching them.
Woow me sorprendió esa máquina!!
Las máquinas de bordar son muy versátiles.
@@KaysCutz Muy linda !!
THIS IS AWESOME GREAT JOB
Thank you.
I use a short 1/2" stiff brush
Cool. Thanks for watching. Happy stitching
Can you please do a video on the sew in version
Hi Patricia, I would like to but unfortunately I cant as my sewing machine wont stitch through bulky thicknesses of fabric. I am very sorry.
Can you share the Beverly Lemon version of the sewn in towel? Thank you.
Hi Daniell sorry I dont know what the Beverly Lemon version of the towel is. Merry Christmas.
Beautiful. I just watched the potholder video. Can you tell me what type of machine you are using? I am trying to find a machine that has a hoop that large.
Hi Meloni thanks for watching. My machine is a Brother Innovis V3, love love love it. It came a few hoops including a 7 x 12 hoop. I got the upgrade kit which comes with a code and instructions that you put into your machine and it allows the arm to move further to the left and you also get the 8 x12 hoop with the kit, so well worth it. I hope you find your dream machine soon.
Great video just like all the orhers!
Can you please tell me the name of all the scissors that you use? They seem to work great cutting between small curves. Thanks
Hi Rosario. My larger scissors are double curved scissors and the smaller one is called squizzors. Amazon have both.
Thanks, I'm learning and I was told to buy the duckbill scissors but I like the ones that you use.
Can you make a video of a mugrug?
Thanks!
Duckbills don't get into all the small places as well. Nothing wrong with having several pairs of scissors I do, all for different jobs. Here are links to various mugrug videos I have made. If you go through my channel you will probably find even more coasters and mugrugs than these as I have done quite a few. Happy stitching.

@@KaysCutz I was checking the scissors but I don't know which one should I buy, they have so many different brands and sizes, please help.
Thanks
RosarioI dont know what country you are in so I have picked Amazon.com for the links below.
The type of squizzors I use www.amazon.com/SQUIZZOR-EASY-SQUEEZE-CURVED-SCISOR/dp/B004A9LWB8/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?keywords=reuser+squizzors&qid=1557388204&s=gateway&sr=8-2-fkmr0
And my Double curved at 6" so any like these will be fine www.amazon.com/G-S-Large-Double-Curved-Scissors/dp/B0792WXZB2/ref=sr_1_10?keywords=Double+curved+scissors&qid=1557388482&s=gateway&sr=8-10
Try not to worry about any particular brand as they all do the same job. Hope this helps.
what width elastic did you use looks like maybe an inch?
Hi Linda I honestly cannot remember as three years have passed since I made this video but looking at it I would say an inch maybe, it was most likely a scrap that I was given, I tend to use whatever is on hand. Thanks for watching.
On the potholder, you had floated a piece of cutaway stabilizer. Did you forget or the towel holder doesn't need it?
Hi Terf no I didn't forget I ran out because my delivery was delayed and people were waiting for this stitch along so I made it without.
@@KaysCutzThanks! Great video by the way!
Thank you you're welcome. Happy stitching.
What kind of scissors are you using to trim the fabric close to the stitching? I've not seen that type before.
Hi Dee, they are called squizzors mine are made by REUSER you used to be able to get them on Amazon but they are hard to find these day however Floriani have their own which look identical to mine and they call them a squeeze and snip tool. I can't live without mine. Here is a link to Floriani's. www.allbrands.com/products/58737-floriani-flt-1-squeeze-n-snip-tool-scissors-for-em
I purchased the set with the wording to sdd to the topper. When do I add the words wasn't in the instructions. Any help will be appreciated.
Hi Katherine I would add it after the quilting, so after step 5 on page 13 so stitch colour 4 and then add the wording. You will need to position it where you want it.
Where did you get the stubby tool? Tool provided with my kam snaps only has the sharp end.
Hi Diane, it is a clay sculpting tool from my local craft shop.
What size is your extra piece of fabric
Hi Gail I used a scrap about 3 inches wide and creased and pressed 1/2 inch under on each side. You can make it as wide or narrow as you want.
Where did you purchase the Kam snap hand held pliers?
Hi Vanita you can get a Kam snap set on either Amazon or Aliexpress. I buy from both places.
I dont know what country you are in but this is what you are looking for.
Search words - Kam snaps with pliers

I can’t find the project..help!
The link for the design is below the video in the video description Rita.
What is the width of the fabric in the center
Hi Grace it will depends on which size you are making, the fabric sizes for each size are given in the instructions. Thanks for watching.
Love your videos! What machine is this?
Hi Andrea thank you. It is a Brother V3 embroidery machine.
Hi I have sewn out towel topper but i am having trouble getting cam snaps to stay is there different ones with larger pins.
also would Velcro method work instead of elastic and splitting towels in half
No need to split a towel in half it just feed through the elastic pieces Helen.
Yes you can buy long prong Kam snaps they would be more suited to thicker projects. You would have to to a search to find out who sells them.
Hi, I love it. How is the name of this liquid you brushed? (sorry my english)
Hello. It's water, H2O. Happy stitching
@@KaysCutz ah ok! ..thanks!
@@serhumana64 You're welcome happy stitching
