Scrunching up the mop pad a bit to make it meet, sandwich the other end of the elastic even with the raw edges of the other long side of the mop pad, taking care to keep the elastic aligned at 1″ in. Pin in place.
Sew down this long side of the mop pad, again catching and reinforcing the elastic. The mop pad will be a little scrunched up because of the elastic, so take care not to catch any unwanted fabric in your stitching.
Turn the mop pad right side out, and you’ll see that you have a double thickness of toweling, secured into a tube by the elastic, with an open end on one short side.
To use the mop pad, stretch it over your steam mop, with the elastic on top. For extra absorbency or to add more layers between the steam and a delicate surface, insert a dishtowel into the pocket formed by one open short side of the mop pad.
i am looking for old or reproduced wayne feed sacks or any other with the dealers name to make bath room curtains and shower curtain. Thanks. If you know who makes the shower curtains, I would like to know that too. Thanks
You must have been reading my mind. Just this morning I was thinking that I need to make new pads for my steam mop which I absolutely love. Thank you.
Love the details but where’s the pictures to help? I’m new to sewing and wish I could use this tutorial but without pictures I’m going to have to keep looking. Just a suggestion, thanks 🙂
