I am trying to make the pirate from the Half Yard kids book and the only templates I can find are for the monkey in the book, can any one help me has anyone made this?
Laura replied: 27 Nov 22 at 13:10
The ?What you Need? list says you will need an 8? round template so something you need to prepare yourself rather than being supplied in the book. I would usually draw around a plate or similar to get the size needed. Hope this helps x

I bought some fabric from debbie shore fabrics and they have sent me a wrong colour how do I get intouch as I sent an email on Monday as soon as it arrived and again on tue to make sure it was correct but no one has been intouch so how can I get help please
Laura replied: 17 Nov 22 at 09:13
They usually answer very quickly. Did you email enquiries@debbieshoresewing.com. There is also a Contact Debbie Shore link on the shop website itself that I have found a very good way to get in touch.

I have completed the BOTM and some of my pieces don?t measure correctly and are smaller than the measurements, what can I do ?
Laura replied: 17 Nov 22 at 08:46
Are they very much smaller than they should be?each set of instruction had an unfinished block size that you can check against. If there is a very small difference you could alter the correct sized blocks seam allowance to work with the ones that are too small?.this will have an effect to make your quilt slightly smaller overall. If your blocks are a lot smaller than they should be have you enough white background fabric to put a border around your blocks to resize them? Debbie shows how to add a border to the blocks on the cushions she made for the mid month project for November.

Hi I just been looking at the instructions for completing the botm quilt. I am wondering about the width of the binding it says Debbie used 5x 1/4 inch strips just wondering if this is a mistake seems a bit narrow x
HYSC replied: 16 Nov 22 at 14:30
Hello - you are right, this was a typo - it's been fixed now, but it was supposed to say 2 1/4" wide strips, not 1/4". Thanks for letting us know! HYSC

Does anyone know when the instructions for finishing the BOTM will be released. I was expecting them today, as Debbie said in one of the 'lives' that they would be available in the middle of November. Thank you in advance.
Laura replied: 15 Nov 22 at 19:59
The instructions are under projects ?first item.

Hi team Debbie I want to buy a good craft stand lamp as the light fitting in my room is oddly placed and wondered if anyone could recommend one please
Laura replied: 15 Nov 22 at 17:54
There are a couple of stand lamps on Hobbycraft with good reviews so might we be worth researching those. I have not used a stand light so not able to recommend on this occasion.

I?m a little confused. I received an email with what is needed to make a Christmas angel for today?s project with Debbie and she made a bag. Does anyone know when the angel will be made? Thank you
Sally replied: 12 Nov 22 at 18:06
