Block of the month. I have cut the required lengths. But when I put them all together they are coming up short? Is there a special way I put this together. First time I have ever done anything like this.

I cut one long strip of white fabric and cut it after sewing. Mine doesn't measure the 12.5 either

Not really a question, just to say after watching the show on 5/1/22 tried the chevron blocks. Almost binned a couple of time, but continued and made into a cushion

Hello, I?ve a question about using spray starch. I?ve never used starch on patchwork pieces before but thought I?d give it a try this time. Is it ok to use any sort of spray starch or do you need something special. I have a can of Dylon Spray Starch and used that yesterday - made the fabric lovely and crisp - but I?m thinking now is this making the machine needle sticky or gunking up my machine? Thanks

It's best to use 'Best Press'it has been especially made for using with fabric so it won't stick up your sewing machine, pins etc. Debbie has it in her online shop. Happy stitchingx Lynn

Happy new year everyone. The scarfs that Debbie made can you use cotton fabric or is it just viscose? Thankyou
Megan replied: 8 Jan 22 at 20:40
The reason it?s viscose is because it?s fluid and flows so use something like viscose, polyester or cotton lawn

Hi is there a pattern or guidance I could use to make canvas? bootbag. Id like something to put our walking boots in when they are dry.
Debbie replied: 18 Jan 22 at 16:58
I don't have one Mel but that is such a good idea, how about using laminated fabric so you can wipe it clean?

I?ve just made the cuffed beanie but I have a slightly embarrassing problem. It?s uncomfortably tight when I put it on, I think I must have a big head!! Any ideas on how I can make it a little bit bigger? About an inch should be enough, thank you
BW replied: 9 Jan 22 at 10:14
I really wanted to make the cuffed one, I'll see if I can make the pattern a little bigger and get back to you all.
