Printed off a couple of projects and the print is very small. A friend has noticed it too. Anyone else noticed it. Anything else I print is ok

Can you use any type of wreath ring for the Christmas wreath? Like Styrofoam etc? Thanks xx
Laura replied: 16 Nov 23 at 12:43
I think that would work well, I would probably still cover with strips of fabric so that you can stick the ornaments to your wreath. The wire wreath has a flat surface so that all of the ornaments lay on that but Debbie said you could add wadding so a flat surface is not really necessary x

Has anyone ever made a hot water bottle cover, and if so any tips - I want to make one for my Mum as a Christmas gift and can't decide if to use flannel material or just cotton with thermal interfacing or both?!!!
Rosina replied: 15 Nov 23 at 12:45
I made the one from my files on HYSC projects. I used flannel and it is lovely. I would advise to only have the front of the cover near the skin as I found the opening tended to 'gape' and could burn the user. I have put velcro which helped a little but in future would have the opening higher up so you could have a deeper overlap.

I'm following the instructions and watching Debbie's instructions on you tube. I've pushed zupper to the lining side as stated but I'm still getting a awful looking end to my pouches. No mater how much I push the corner out it still won't sit right on the correct side. Can anyone please advise. Thank you in advance.

Does anybody know why it won?t print template for Rosie the riegndeer

The templates and the instructions are different tabs. Close everything down and then open ONLY the template tab. Good luck

URGENT!!! Can anyone please tell me urgently if you were able to use the 9? felt roll to do the Christmas wreath for this month?s project? Miss Debbie suggested 12? in the video but this looks so ideal in colours. Can it work? If not is there a better option in the store? I live in the Caribbean. Grateful for your speedy response. Thank you.

Hi Caro ?the felt and wreath ring are back in stock now if you have not been made aware x

Hi, what weight cotton material do I need to make the Maddie Doll?

Hi everyone. My question is can you quilt flannel and cotton together or would I be better using all flannel. Its for a baby quilt. Thank you. Kate
Laura replied: 8 Nov 23 at 09:26
You often see quilts with a cotton top and a warm fabric underneath so I think this will be fine. The wadding and the quilting should stabilise the quilt once it is put together. I think flannel is nice both sides in the colder months as it will feel warm whichever side you use.

Hi, is a finished block the size when attached to other blocks or size prior to sewing to other blocks please ????
barb replied: 9 Nov 23 at 07:19
If you are looking at instructions for one block then the finished size is for that block when completed as a standalone project.
