Hi could someone tell me the code for 10% off. For the dolls house Debbie said 'wet fabric glue is needed anyone have a name for that?
Megan replied: 9 Mar 22 at 19:35
Hi if you go to the about me or blog on this Website you will find the 10% off code there. You can use any fabric glue but debbie uses Gutterman HT2 glue which you can get on her website.

Have anyone noticed the template for the large hexagon on the crumb cushion cover is not 4 inches on each side and I don?t know if it?s still ok to use that template or I need to make my own proper sized template? Am still a beginner thank you.

Hi am doing the turkey panel for the BOTM. When stitching the feathers down it says use gold thread.. does this mean metallic thread or gold coloured thread? Sorry I'm having a blank moment, been wilting for years!! Lynn x
Lynn replied: 8 Mar 22 at 14:18
Thank you for replying Debbie, I think I will do the same as Melissa then maybe use gold metallic thread later by hand. Kind regards Lynn x

Hi, I may have missed the info on Debbie's live yesterday when making the cross body bag but what length webbing did she cut? Thank you.
Debbie replied: 8 Mar 22 at 12:52
30" is generally a good cross body length...

I need a crossbody bag with a zip along the top , I can do the bag with a flap but need one with a zip, any ideas from Debbie?s patterns which I could do please?
Laura replied: 6 Mar 22 at 19:29
There is a cross body bag for a dog walker on You Tube Debbie Shore which I would think could be adapted to put the zip in the top. Hope this helps Laura

Hi just wondered why photos uploaded to the site seem to rotate from the original...you are unable to correct this before you submit to both the project photo gallery and to this ask a member page. Does anyone else have this problem or just me? ????

Hi, I have spoken to the web team and it's something to do with the original image. If it was taken landscape initially, even if the user rotated with Windows photo viewer or similar, it will still show in the original orientation when uploaded. The solution at present is to rotate using image editing software such as paint/photoshop etc and save it as a new file before uploading. I hope that helps!

Hi, I'm just about to start this year's BOM and would like clarification on what size comes first for the cutting instructions, ie is it width (across the fabric left to right) x length/depth (top to bottom). Apologies if this question has already been asked and answered. It's my first time attempting a quilt. Jennifer

Hi. Doing the block of the month. Haven't done a lot of the techniques. Doing the Turkey trot feathers. A bit lost. Sewn the the feather so I have a pointed top. Next do I fold the side edges to the centre at the back of feather. If so how can my seam allowance be at the side???? Also when you sew the finished feathers together do you put the feathers right sides together and Sew along 1 side ???. All help appreciated ????????

No just sew the feathers together as per the instructions. The thin end will be raw but then hidden by the turkey body.
