My hardly used 10 year old sewing machine isn?t stitching properly . I?ve done everything possible to correct it ( read the manual through out). Nothing works. I?ve been told it will be cheaper to buy a new machine than pay to have it professionally fixed !! What do you think I should do. .? Thank you xxx

I'm really struggling to follow the instructions for the BOTM. The photos aren't very easy to see what's happening - I can't really tell a difference between the ones for step 1 & 2! Can anyone clarify please? A video would be really useful I think. Thank you.

Sewing with tartan? Hi everyone, was wanting to ask if anyone has used proper wool tartan before? I'm lucky enough to live within walking distance of a brilliant scrap store in Scotland which has loads of proper wool tartan seconds and offcuts etc as we have lots of textile mills in the area. I would love to attempt a Harris Tweed inspired bag but not sure if it would be too delicate a fabric or what I would be best to interface it with? I did make bridal flower ties and other wedding bits last year and it's blooming fluffy stuff and I had fibres flying everywhere! Thanks and wishing you all a great weekend.

I made a wallet, with some tartan we got from Edinborough, it frays, but just interface with either a light, or medium interfacing... it works...

Just read the required fabric for Sept. block and would like to confirm the 3rd piece of fabric are not 27" but just over 2 .5" ? Janis
Bev replied: 9 Sep 23 at 13:37
@HYSC on 9th September the third item on the bullet list is still says 2?in (6.75cm) squares. 6.75cm converts to 2.657 inches. This is a really challenging block for beginners and I would be so grateful if someone says what the measurement should be in inches? There have been quite a few questions on this, I have trawled through back to 1st September and the instructions still haven't been rectified.
