Make Ironing Mat

This is such a nice idea and i love the spotty fabric.

Make ironing mat.

Before you sew your three pieces together make sure they are laid on top of one another in this order. Ironing boards are good for clothing items etc but when it comes to ironing yards of fabric it s just really nice to have a wider space for ironing. Customizing the mat to meet your pressing or ironing needs will be a great benefit to you and make ironing easier on your body. So i decided to make an ironing mat which turns my table into a big ironing board.

Such a good idea. 100 cotton fabric for ironing mat top and backing insulbright insulated batting or any other insulated batting 100 cotton batting optional cotton scraps to pad batting cotton binding cotton thread my finished mat size is 30 x20 so i started by cutting all of my fabrics to just over that size. When not in use simply roll up the mat and tie it for easy storage. The top fabric should be the same size as the batting and the bottom fabric should extend at least 1 5 out from the batting.

I m working on a bigger project that will involve a lot of ironing. It can be more than that but it needs to be at least that minimum. An ironing mat is a great addition to a sewing or craft space and is sometimes more convenient than an ironing board. Holly olivia june 18 2015.

You can make you diy ironing pad any size you want mine is about 35 square you will want to layer your insul bright between two layers of fabric. I finally decided i was going to make my own ironing pad because it s just not practical to have a large permanent table taking up space in my house. One of the sizes you can buy measures about 17 by17 inches and you can get it in 1 2 inch thicknesses. Not only do i need to make an ironing mat i have to give my washer and dryer a little pizzazz too.
