The older I get the more I find that I need a handle for stability, so I don’t drop things. Adding a strap type vertical handle where you can slip the palm of your hand into would be a great added feature. Just a thought.
I love this tutorial so much…and not just because I love mason jars! I love how you cruise along so fast and don’t get bogged down. It’s perfect for my adhd brain. You get the point across and make such cute stuff. Thank you!
My husband and I just made 50 of these using your pattern. We are providing 12 oz wide mouth jars and recipes for overnight oats. 25 gifts. Boom. Done. THANK YOU!
I’m make bowl cozies and have left over wrap and zap - if you used wrap and zap and 100% cotton fabric and thread they could go in microwave….. Please note- you cannot put Insul-Bright in the microwave!!!!! Great idea for gift giving. I love hot tea - I could make it in my cup and pour in jar and it would stay warm longer.
I was just thinking something! I'm making Koozie Bowls as well for craft boutique, and this would go perfect with the bowls!;Thank you @PinCutSew for this wonderful idea!
Excellent! I've been drinking out of jars for so long, I don't own a single glass or tumbler. I love to bring soup in a jar to work, but I'm sick and tired of using jerry-rigged folded up paper towels as cozies. Gonna make some of these TODAY!!
I save the tops of the shake on parmesan and use them on regular mason jars as lids. My grandkids call them sip or swallow lids since they can put a straw in the holes side or open up the opposite side and drink from that. Love the idea of the cozy and now I know what people will get come gift time. Thank you!
8 oz. Jelly jars make nice yogurt jars! You can incubate the yogurt right in the jar in either a yogurt maker or your Instant Pot. I dehydrate and powder vegetables and add the powders to other foods like casseroles or smoothies. They need to be protected from light, so cozies to the rescue! Very cute idea! I think a whole line of them, done in a matching fabric, would be very nice in my soon-to-be tiny house! Tiny canisters, after all! Thank you!
Wonderful idea. I make a great hot chocolate mix with a handful of marshmallows. Just add hot water or milk and shake. I'll plan on it for my Teacher Friends. 🎶💐💖
This is fabulous! Going to batch make these for a big party I'm throwing my daughter! Thank you so much for sharing your talents! God Bless and keep them coming!❤ Terry
This was really easy after I figured out I had skipped a step. Didn't leave the opening in the lining. Once I reread Nikki's directions and watched her Utube video again, things went very smoothly. Will be making several of these little cozies. Thanks Nikki.
I use a mason jar for water at work and it sweats all over the place. I just made a coaster for it last week but you bet I'll be making this instead! SO CUTE! I think they would be great for teacher gifts too. Also, best intro ever about the sewing scissors! LOL
Love mason jars, have them scattered throughout the house. Use them for holding buttons, bobbins, marbles, pens, scissors, you name it. Love this idea, thanks.😊 This would be a great gift with 3-2-1 cake mix, just add a measuring spoon and directions. The ideas are endless!!! 😂
This is a great pattern. But you only spoke about food and drink uses for the mason jar with cozies. It’s so attractive, I can think of lots of uses in the quilt room….quilt clips storage, pencil jar, tool and small ruler jar, spare bobbin storage, button storage…the list goes on! I love it.
Rereading my comment I didn't intend to ask you to make a new template/. I will mess around and figure it out. I am glad for the tutorial and great ideas. @@PinCutSew
We use pasta jars here.... I was thinking that I may need to alter the pattern to work... And a great project to use batting scraps from the sides of my quilts
Great video and lovely idea. I did this for a friend and filled it with fabric and hexagon so that she could do some EPP. I even included a small chocolate bar.
Fantastic ideas thanks for sharing your video with us... Summer time cosie for icy poles (Australia has Zooper Doopers for kids and adults alike for those hot days in the Summer) Zooper Dooper cosies for little hands...
My sis-in-law always takes smoothies to work for her lunch - I am making her one of these. I love the idea of putting flowers in them when presenting them!
Thank you a million times over!! I love your ideas, and have been “batch sewing” your XL hot pads - with matching pot holders! Gifting them with the new Half Baked Harvest cookbook! Now I want to make a million mason jar cozies, and already have the jars with the lids in my A cart! Thanks again for the fun ideas and tutorials.:))🎄🎄🎄
I originally bought this pattern to make for myself (I drink iced tea and coffee all the time), but it's become my main gift idea for a bunch of girls at church this year. I'm giving it with a pretty wooden straw lid and a reusable straw. I guess I assume everyone else likes iced drinks...haha. Easy, cheap and useful!
I love these! I just bought the pattern from you and can’t wait to start sewing them. I drink my tea all day long at work from jars. Jars are my preference!! What great gift ideas you had too!
I love this project! They are so easy! The large one fits Talenti ice cream! I’ve also made some to use for our senior dog’s scent work. They are big enough for him to see/find and just enough of a challenge to get the treat out. I’m thinking of making a bunch with mason jars to use for serving beverages at a shower and then then the guests get to take them home. Thank you so much!
I love these! You have such a creative mind! So many wonderful ideas! I just started watching your videos..where have you been?! or where have I been?! lol
I'm wondering if these will fit all the jars I save - all sitting on my garage shelves. You know, like pasta sauce jars, pickle jars, salsa jars, etc. I'm sure they could be adapted. Great gift ideas.
I made water bottle cozies for my quilt guild mates and pieced circles in the bottoms. I wish I'd seen your video showing the boxed corners first! It would have saved me a lot of cussing!
I love this idea and the gift ideas. I don't have mason jars, but I save jam jars and pasta sauce jars etc and never know how to reuse them. Thanks do much for this video really inspired me 😘
I put a short up with dimensions for a half gallon size cozy on my channel. IMPORTANT: the measurements include a 3/8" seam allowance. (because that's what I get if I follow the regular presser foot on my Juki)
I’m thinking hot chocolate mix for winter. Also maybe making a huge one for the 8 (?) cup mason jar I use to make sun tea because then I can bring the ice tea on a picnic and keep it cold
trying to figure out the measurements for a half gallon mason jar cozy. My first attempt was not that great. And instead of cutting out the corners to box them, I sew across the corner triangle from the outside, then fold that up and sew a button on it so there is a cute triangle with a button on the bottom edge of the cozy.
can you design a cozy for beer bottles or pop cans? I been looking for one with bottom so the object does not slide through. Love the mason jar but think it is to big for what I want,, thanks and hope you had a nice Thanksgiving
I made the small one and it was perfect size but when I made the quart size it was way to tight. I had to add another 1/4 inch to the pattern to make it large enough to fit. And yes my pattern was 100%.
I’m curious about which brand of jar you used to create your pattern. I made 24 quart jar cozies with no issue (Ball brand) but ended up having issues with the small jars (Kerr brand). I had to cut the small cozy pattern down by 1/4”, otherwise it was very loose. Perhaps there’s some varying of size between brands on the pint jars?
May I ask…. What is the mat you are using with your mini iron. I am thinking about purchasing the mini iron for smaller projects like this just so I don’t have to walk to the ironing board all the time. 😊 thanks in advance.
It’s just a wool ironing mat. You have to be careful because of you use steam it will ruin the surface underneath and the wool smells 😂 So I just use it without steam and I’m still careful not to use it on top of my cutting mat. It is handy!
I purchased the pattern, drove to another town to so I could purchase the material, and am so sad to say that after making 3 of the (Ball) mason jar cozies, all of them ended up just a tad to small to fit around the jar, even when I enlarged one of the patterns.
Oh no! So sorry you've having trouble. A few things to try: did you for sure print the pattern at 100% scale and did the test square measure 1"? Sometimes 1 out of 100 printers will print slightly differently than most! Next, are you using a 1/4" seam allowance? Third, try cutting the pieces so that the stretchier side of your fabric will be going around the jar, not up and down; this can make a difference. Lastly, instead of enlarging the pattern, try slicing it in half and spreading the pieces jsut 1/4" apart when cutting. This will give you an extra 1/2" total. Use a scrap fabric to try the new size and adjust until it's correct. Once you get the size right, I hope you enjoy making lots of cozies!
@@PinCutSewThank you so very much for answering my individual question. You gave me great advice and now that I know what different to do differently, I will! 🎉🎉
They’re oats that you mix with milk and other things and put in the fridge over night. They’re meant to be eaten cold, they’re really good! Pinterest has tons of recipes.
