Thanks for all the effort you put into these, the people who are subscribers are grateful. congratulations on some great work!
Thank you for making a video that is easy to follow along and a good project for beginners! You are great!
I have senw SO MANY hand towels for us from this video!- mostly with terry towelling- thank you always for your work- . Marietta, Brisbane Australia
I know that this is an old video but I just love the way you explain everything. I have a buttonhole gadget that came with my sewing machine. Being new to this craft you made the button hole gadget so much easier to understand. Thank you. I like to follow your videos. So detailed and always with a smile.
I just happened to be searching internet and came across your idea with easy hanging kitchen towel. 🙏
EXCITING, SIMPLE & FUN video with EASY to download FREE towel pattern --THANK YOU!!!🎉
Great video! To the point without chitchat and right on point. Keep these videos coming. You're A wonderful teacher.
Your tutorials have helped me from binding a quilt,making a "burrito" pillow to these tea towels that my daughter wants me to make her. Your instructions are spot on. Thank you, can't wait to make a couple !
Vanessa, I really enjoy your videos. You enunciate clearly, you are upbeat and give very clear instructions with enough time to absorb each step.
+Karen Brennan you are so sweet! Thanks so much! :) Glad that you enjoy the videos!
Thank you Thank you, Christmas is coming, I have been following you for a long time. Happy sewing. 2022
if you are planning on giving this to someone who is elderly or has arthritis, buttons are the bane of our existence. It is a little more expensive, but the magnetic snaps that can be sewn in work great or even sew in a piece of velcro ( i prefer the magnets as they don't get messy like velcro eventually will. But it is less expensive.), and you can always sew on a decorative button if you want. also i wouldn't cut your tea towel in half. tea towels are thin, and fairly inexpensive. when you cut it in half it makes it look cheap. by just putting your basting stitch on the center line you will end up with a fuller looking hanging towel. or you can simply lay it flat then fold it into thirds the width of the topper. then fold in 1/2. no gathering involved. this will give you a very neat and tidy appearance. this is nice for towels with writing on it that you want people to see.
You have such a great way of explaining things. I appreciate that you don't have LOUD music that drowns out your voice too. I don't sew much, but I do like these towels so I'm going to make a couple this afternoon. Thank you for sharing your tutorial and thank you for the printable template. I can see why you have almost 60,000 subscribers!
I now have a project to use heart buttons on, for St. Valentine's day towels. Thank you CG!
+ndlz1 that would be so cute!!
I absolutely adore you, I am just starting to sew I am in my 50's, and yes I did learn a little sewing in 7th grade...a little while ago... 8 ) my hubby bought me a sewing machine on black Fri. I stated watching your videos, and you are my hero!!! I am hoping to try the buttonhole it was so intimidating to me until I watched this video...and let me say, "You are an awesome teacher thank you so much for remembering us newbies, even us oldies"!!
when I make my aprons I add a loop to hang one of these on. I make a couple to match the apron, so I can change to clean hand towels.
Well presented. Thorough and simply demonstrated. No excess talking. Great video. I learned a lot from it. Thank you.
Thank you, I was always afraid of the button hole piece thinking it would be complicated to use.🥰 a sign of relief 😅.
I bought a button foot and sew the buttons on the machine. It looks so good!
Thank you, Vanessa, You are always so clear without talking down to us, and have such good projects. Love your smile, too.
HI Vanessa, as soon as I finished watching this video I checked my machine and it had the same buttonhole foot. I couldn't wait to try it. OMG, it was so easy and the button hole was just the perfect size for the button. I'm going to start adding buttons to my projects and I owe it all to you, thank you.
+sacelace1 I hope that these turned out great for you!!
Love your hand towel tutorial! You explain everything so well! You make everything look so easy no matter how experienced you are. Thank you 🤗💕
I think I love you! You explain everything so well! For a beginner, you are a blessing!
Love the tip with the pin as I have cut through the end of the button hole before. On a dress for my daughter. So disappointing to do that. So your tip was great.
I love your videos. You are a great speaker and make it very easy to follow what you are doing. I am a new sewer and you are teaching me well. Thank you.
found your youtube page and saw about 4 videos . I'm addicted already. 😄 you are awesome and helpful. straight to the point.
+Victoria Castro so glad you found me!! Enjoy :)
Thanks Vanessa! I found some material I had purchased a couple of years ago, I printed out 6 of the patterns so I could lay it all out on the cloth. It was SO easy and fun. I will soon have homemade Christmas gifts for the girls in the family! I will be purchasing my towels in the morning so I can finish up. It was nice to be able to get the rest of it finished. Thanks again. I look forward to your videos each week!
+T Pro I love homemade Christmas gifts!! They are the best :)
There needs to be a LOVE button. Great project, thanks Vanessa!!!
+Julie Savard-Vantran Thanks, Julie!
That was probably the best button hole Tutorial I have ever seen. Beginners take note. Thanks Crafty Gemini
Haha! Vanessa...you were right. With this super cute video you made me want to try my button hole foot!!....I have never tired it but I saw how easy it is and will for sure try it with this project! THANKS!!
+Martha Cymbaluk it amazes me how easy it really is!! It looks so intimidating.....
Great tutorial! I wash my towels and fabrics first. Some of the cotton towels shrink an amazing amount-not a problem-just make one hanging towel from each towel. If it is preshrunk, your gift recipient won’t be unpleasantly surprised after washing for the first time!
I zigzag over dental floss. Easiest gathering ever!!
I see you date this was done quite some time ago but I just discovered it. What a clear and easy to understand video. Thanks so much.
I used to make these years ago. I made them for Christmas gifts for friends and family and they loved them always looking for them
Thank you for this tutorial, it was great and i love how you showed how to use the button hole foot!
This is a great tutorial! Thank you for demonstrating the button hole foot -- I have a babylock machine but just haven't done button holes on it yet! I'm sure the Brother machines and others with this type of foot work similarly, so thank you for a clear demo!
This is a great beginner project -- gathering is an essential skill to know! Maybe I could help my granddaughter make one for her mom!
+Gerrie Louden I'm so glad you enjoyed it and learned a new skill, Gerrie!
+Crafty Gemini Creates A little update: I went crazy and ordered several tea towels from Amazon, and then used my precuts for the tops and made 7 of these for Christmas presents. My Babylock Ellure Plus was SO easy to use for the button holes, just like your demo showed!

Thank you Vanessa! I really enjoy the way you teach. I'm on my third towel in two days.
Thank you for this video. I used your burrito pillowcase video can’t wait to make these towels. Thanks for easy directions.
Thanks for this tutorial. I'm making some for myself and some for gifts. I love all your videos.
Vanessa, Wow what an awesome video!! I have watched a number of the dish towel videos others have made and although they are all good - they are not as informative as your's as far as making the button hole goes. Button holes scare me along with zippers but, after watching many zipper videos last weekend I think I can do one and tomorrow when my eyes are better in the morning I want to get my button hole foot out and read the directions. I have a Bernina with a metal foot. I like your voice, your diction is always great. I love your craft room and all you have on your walls - the colors everything you display is an eye catcher too. In 2015 I watched how to make the catch-all fabric baskets and I shared my pattern with a friend who was learning how to sew last summer (her business is card making) and wow - she has been making your baskets like crazy and selling them at her craft sales. Now she is using cam snaps in colors to match the fabric because you can unsnap it and lay it flat to iron it. She made one for my birthday with my initials in gold vinyl (she also has a cricket and makes vinyl crafts too). I took the basket to Sanibel with me in November to put on my dresser in the condo to put my barrettes and jewelry in. I can no longer make the baskets to sell because now she makes them to sell and if we are doing the same sale I want her's to be bought. At Christmas time I made one of your baskets a tad bigger and on each corner I sewed a thin grosgrain ribbon and tied a bow on the top of the corner and put pretty Christmas napkins in it. I thought this afternoon on making one the size of business cards to hold my cards that I hope to order soon. I stick to a budget and keep changing my mind as to what little picture to have on my card as I sew and bead and make note cards. Hopefully tomorrow I will get a new cartridge for my printer too so I can download your templet. Thanks again for an awesome video.
I’m a very old and new to sewing gal. I found your instructions so clear and easy to follow. I can’t wait to try this and view more of your videos! 12/8/20
Excellent video👌
Very clear explanation of how to fold the fabric before putting the towel.
Love the way you explained how to use the piece to make a button hole. Excellent I’m so thrilled 👌 thank you so much.
Found your videos😍 So happy 😍
I really love your videos. I am a beginner and I just made this and I am very happy with how it turned out :) Made my first button hole and sewed on my first button with my machine. Thanks Vanessa!!
+queencs12 congrats!! Welcome to the world of sewing :)
Thank you so very much for this video and the template. I am EIGHT!!!!! months behind in my Christmas gift preparations, and this will help me so much! Thank you again!
You’re so fast and thorough! Time for me to get sewing since I found some irresistible towels at Costco.
I really like the way you make your towel . I have seen a few of these made, and I like yours the best.
Your video's are great. I saw lots of videos on how to do this but yours was so clear, concise, easy to watch and listen to. Thank you and keep these wonderful easy to follow videos coming!
Oh my goodness- I’ve never figured out that button foot. Thank you very much for sharing all these great tips!
You are a great teacher and what a great project. BTW, I love how you have your work area decorated, especially the fabric in the hoops. Thanks.
love it... have to add this to my project list. I got a button hole plate, but had no idea how it worked and the book showed very little, so thanks for the demonstration. So glad you and MSQC are doing things together.
I love this idea for quick simple but impressive gifts. Good demonstration and easy to follow.
I like this a lot! I had never seen a button hole made before. Very nice!
Great video! You’re such an inspiration and an amazing teacher!! 😉
Great, easy to follow directions. Your style is so relaxed and directions are very clear. Thanks for a great tutorial!.

Vanessa, as always, your video is excellent! You are my go to person whenever I want to tackle a new project!
Vanessa Thanks so much for this tutorial. My husband and I fish and use these type towels looped through our belt loops at the waist to wipe our hands after (hopefully) catching a big one! Because you never can find these hanging towels when you need them, I will certainly be saving this one to make a pair when we need them.
WOW! Been looking for how to make these little hand towels! I have been buying them as I always like to have one hanging bye my sink! Thank so much for teaching how to make them! Love and enjoy your video's hugs Liz...
This is the best tutorial I've seen for button holes. Thanks for sharing. New subscriber. Can't wait to dive into your other videos.
Love to watch your tutorials. Easy to understand and follow along.
I love the pin tip for cutting the button hole!
Thank you! I've made about 6 of these using your tutorial! I did cheat on a couple of them and used velcro and sewed a button on the tab for decorative purposes.
I like that idea. I'm scared to make a button hole and ruin the whole piece...thanks!
Thank you, I have a Babylock Tempo, same button hole foot, but I never have figured it out. I've been driving up to my daughters house 30 minutes away to use her 1969 singer that was grandma's, or hand stitching a button hole. Merry Christmas!
+Jennie Wallick You'll have to let us know how it goes on your machine when you try it out! :)
+Jennie Wallick Oh try it out, just look at your book but follow what Vanessa does on the video -- it's VERY easy, you put the button into the back area of the buttonhole foot, put it on the machine, pull down the little plastic thing to sit against the foot (your machine book will explain) -- once you get this, you won't want to use anything else! Try it out on some scrap fabric and use a 3/4" or less sized button -- try it out when it's NOT part of a project... it only takes 5 minutes or less.
I have a perfect button hole! Ok I also have 4 or 5 that weren't so great but they were on practice cloth
+Jennie Wallick That is so cool! Yes it took a little practice for me too -- this towel project was the first time using the buttonhole function on my machine, too (it's 18 months old)... doing it on a towel is a little different than on a garment will be, but at least you figured out how the buttonhole function works:) Happy New Year, may you have lots of fun sewing throughout the whole year, and be brave and try out new things!
Thank you for your quick efficient tutorial. I will use a snap fastener as I don’t have a button hole accessory 👏
you are so helpful and your videos are so easy to understand! thanks for all your tutorials!
Thanks! I enjoyed the tutorial!
Alway enjoy watching from the Bahamas you are amazing 🎉
You are great..easy to understand, and not boring..Thanks
Thank you for this video! It was a real eye opener! ( I had no clue what that little lever was for and bingo, everything started to make sense! Thanks for making it look easy!
Im newer to sewing, I have been watching a lot of your tutorials thank you, and now I know how to use my button maker lol. Thank you again and I love your projects :o)
I sew my buttons on with my machine. So easy to do!
Hi Vanessa, I am new to your video. Took a while but I finally found the pattern. Tomorrow I’m going to try to make this. Thank you in advance, Gale
I love this tutorial! Your pattern for the upper part reminded me of the shape of those plastic putty scrapers you can get at a hardware store! I may have to see if that could be a good pattern for it!
I LOVE your videos, they've gotten me through many a sewing meltdown. :D Thanks so much.
Thanks for this video! I've always wanted to use the button stitch and foot!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I have several sewing machines I like ...but now I want one like this. Love how easy the buttonhole was. I will be making a ton of thes!
Check out your manual and at sewingpartsonline.com to see if you can get a buttonhole foot for your machine 🙂
I loved the tutorial! You had just the right speed and plenty of information for all skill levels . I subscribed so once I tackle this project I will look to you for more. (Also, I am a Gemini so it was meant for me to learn from you)
Great tutorial. I've been wanting to make one with a crocheted top, but now I think I will sew one. You make it look "sew" easy.
I love the Crafty Gemini "quiltress" it has so much information and it is so good and I like her!
I did not know how these were sewn. Thanks for sharing the tips.
