I just ordered this pattern last night. And I searched for the video so I could watch it. I had stiff interfacing somewhere in my craft room so I went looking for it and decluttered where it was which was under my cutting table. Killed two birds with one stone, found my interfacing and organized under my cutting table. Can’t wait to start making them.

I am a visual learner. And I appreciate that you are making tutorials like this. Thank you

I've been following you for a while, I'm not sure why it's taken me this long to make one of these! I got a hot coffee today, and almost burned myself because they didn't give me a sleeve. No more, I'm going to make a couple of them! Thank you for another great tutorial!

This was helpful. I got the patten and kept stacking the pieces on top of themselves and it wasn’t lining up. So I watched how you turned them to cut the pieces and that made all the difference!

That fabric is hilarious! 😂 Archers' salute!

Great project. I left one of the small ends open vs. the long bottom side for ease of sewing. plan to make lots more. Thanks for pattern.

Wonderful and simple project. Great idea for Father's Day gifts at my church. Thanks for the inspiration, and the video tutorial for us visual learners.

Hi Nikki, I love your videos and my 6-yr old grandson loves watching them with me. We decided to make your coffee sleeves for his mother but the templates only print blank sheets. One link only has the fabric template. The other has both but neither will print. I tested that it is not my printer by trying other sites but it is just yours that I can't print. Hope you can help me out. We also plan to make book sleeves and markers after this. Thanks for the great ideas.

The pages to the Amazon links are in Spanish, just fyi. I use an iPhone and was able to click on the three dots on right side of page (in Chrome) and choose Translate so easy to change if needed. Just letting you know:)

Ever try insul bright for the interior? I know it wouldn’t have the structure but it could help a little to buffer differing temps.

Thank you so much Nikki, this is wonderful!

Does the 1/8” topstitching sew through the peltex? So glad I found this video! Thank you!

Gday from Australia, thanks for awesome vids, just wanna know where did you purchase your tape measure sticky tape please? Xxxx

Hi Nikki! I bought the pattern but keep getting confused on whether the smaller (more angled) side should be the side that gets overlapped, or the side that overlaps the other. I hope that question makes sense. I'm not sure if it should go under (get overlapped), or over (overlap the not angled side).

Could I put insulbrite in this? My hands still get cold and hot from the fabric ones, I am wondering if I can stick some in there too. Might make it a lot thicker. Im going to try this but increase the pattern an extra half edge on perimeters just to make sure it fits.

This reminds me of cake pan cozies I've seen, that help your cakes bake more evenly and less domed. You soak them in water (and wring out) before putting onto your cake pan and baking as usual. Obviously you'd want to use 100% cotton fabric and batting, never polyester for this.

[dorisherrero]

Great project. I’m gonna try to make one, but I would like to know where you purchase the paper tape.

What size coffee cup is this for please?
