Simple Fabric Hot Pad: An Easy Beginner Sewing Project
Looking for a low-stress sewing project? In this week’s Snippets with Patterns By Jen, I’m sharing a simple fabric hot pad that focuses on basic construction and clean finishing, without quilting or binding.

Some links in this post are affiliate links, which means if you click and decide you really do need that fabric, ruler, or notion, I may earn a small commission, at no extra cost to you. It helps support Patterns By Jen and keeps my sewing room stocked with thread and rotary blades. 😉 You can read my full disclosure HERE.
Sometimes we just want to sew a little "something," not a quilt, or even a table runner, just a quick finish. While the hot pad may take a little extra fiddling, it's still a quick (and instantly usable) make. I share tips for creating less bulk and how to get a nice a finish.
This project is:
• Beginner friendly
• Scrap friendly
• Giftable
Supplies I used in the video:

Watch the full tutorial:
Remember to use all 100% cotton supplies for this project. From fabric to thread, 100% cotton should be used when making something that will be used for hot things
This project is made easier with a walking foot. If you’re a new quilter, that’s one of my top recommendations for an early investment. It isn’t required, but it does make stitching layers like these much easier, and you’ll use it a lot in your quilting.
Snippets by Patterns By Jen are short, sweet tutorials designed to spark creativity, encourage new ideas, and bring joy to your quilting journey.
