Quilted Hand Muff<br />

Hand muffs are a vintage item. But if you<br />

think about it, there could be times when<br />

you’re sitting in a chilly arena, outdoor<br />

skating rink, watching people skiing down<br />

the hills or maybe you enjoy the outdoors,<br />

sitting admiring the winter view? Then, the<br />

hand muff could be useful again. This hand<br />

muff has sewn-in Therm Fleece and pockets<br />

to accommodate hand warmer products like<br />

Grabber Warmers®, for extra warmth, to<br />

keep your hands toasty warm.<br />

Another benefit of making this project<br />

is that it's an easy pattern with straight<br />

seams giving the opportunity to learn how<br />

to sew using Therm Fleece and Stitch-N-<br />

Steam products. These products can be<br />

used on other sewing projects, like a tea<br />

cozy or anything that needs insulating.<br />

Furthermore, the Stitch-N-Steam can be<br />

used on quilted items as well as fibre art<br />

projects for an easy textured effect.<br />
