Where?s the order code to get 10 present of Debbie?s on line shop as I can?t find it please
Anne replied: 6 Oct 21 at 18:00
Hi Vanda, the way I find it is don?t checkout but select view cart. Here you will find the space for gift vouchers or promo code. Hope this helps

Hi Debbie would it be possible for a bat sleeve top pattern similar to the ones you wear as a project in the Half Yard Club please.
Debbie replied: 7 Oct 21 at 15:22
Hi Ann, difficult without a pattern I'm afraid but I'll put some thought into it!

I've just cut out the made to measure skirt. I want to line it, should I cut out the lining 2 and half inches down from the top or would it be better with a waist band?
Alice replied: 7 Oct 21 at 17:59
Thank you Debbie, that's what I decided to do, otherwise I would have had a ridge over my (too big) tummy.

Been making the kimono but in longer version for my friend but don't think it's going to be wide enough in body could I a a side strip just for extra room gutted coz it's already cut out
Debbie replied: 7 Oct 21 at 15:25

Hi Debbie or any other hrloful person, today I asked about a drawstring backpack and Debbie said she had made one.... The one I see is a backpack with a drawstring fastening included...... Im looking for something like PE BAG that has a drawstring and can be worn as a backpack also lined.... I can't find a pattern anywhere and can't see that Debbie has designed one .. Thanks in advance for any help Denise

Hi, I've just finished the Sewing Room Holder and want to upload some pictures I can't find the project to upload the pictures. I m not a member of Facebook so unable to upload the pictures on Debbies page. Please could you advise me where I can upload the pictures of my finished project. Many thanks Lorraine
HYSC replied: 4 Oct 21 at 08:57
Hi Lorraine, As there isn't a project to upload against on the website, the best thing to do is email the photos to us via projects@halfyardsewingclub.com and we might put them in the newsletter/on the Facebook page (we get quite a lot of photos, so we can't guarantee it!) or otherwise post them in here as you have done! :) Best Claire, HYSC

Would it be possible to include the QR Video code with each new project - I have just downloaded the Maddie Witch Outfit instructions but the QR code is not included. I know I can access the video without the code at the moment but it would save time later having to add it. Sorry if this is a silly question! Thank you.

Ahhh yeah that makes sense, thank you for the explanation, I won't be going anywhere either I love the club and projects.

Would the cardboard box that cereal comes in be OK to use for the exploding box project? Thinking it will be easier to cut than corrugated card
Megan replied: 29 Sep 21 at 20:12
May be a bit thin so I would put more than one layer on top of each other up to you though

hi Debbie Just a thought but please could you do a master class on different size sewing machine needles either on a Wednesday or Saturday or on your website please also could you explain which fabrics go with which needles because I think I just use a general size for everything thank you Helene
Shiralee replied: 28 Sep 21 at 10:25
Yes great idea. Also perhaps a technique chat once a month for us newbies at sewing. Like different quilting stitches, tips etc Debbie has done chats about different machine feet and how to clean your machine. They were really helpful.
