Hi, I?ve recently bought the Sparkle Glitter Cotton fabric which is quite stiff and very glittery! My question is do I need to use a different needle? Also, as I bought not knowing what this fabric feels like, any ideas on a suitable project for it?? Thank you for any help. Maureen
Debbie replied: 28 Dec 21 at 09:45
It is quite a firm fabric, but would make a rather glamorous bag or a book cover and book mark, I've also made shoes for Maddie. A universal needle is fine but may blunt quite quickly!

Hi, can anyone remember if Debbie has made an overnight bag please. I thought she had, although it was a while ago, but maybe I have imagined it ???? thank you.

I think that Debbie?s Sewing Machine Bag ...December HYSC project would make a lovely overnight bag ....just building up the confidence to give it a go.

I actually had this same problem so I just turned it off and gave it a bit of a scrub with some soap and water and it came off fine

Hello! I really want to have a go at quilting and the 2022 block of the month has inspired me to give it a go. Any advice on where to start? Would one of the previous years blocks be a good start? I?m thinking that the project maybe a bit beyond my skills.
Louise replied: 23 Dec 21 at 12:15
Thank you. That sounds a good plan. I will give that a go first.

Hi Im certain I watched a Debbie Shore tutorial about putting a zip in the back of a cushion and folding the fabric to conceal the zip. However Ive now spent over 2 hours looking for it !! Can anyone jog my memory please ?

Jilly - (FB Wispa Labrador) replied: 7 Dec 21 at 13:18

Hi Debbie & Team, Please can you recommend the best fabric glue to use? Thanks you Lorraine
Megan replied: 6 Dec 21 at 07:35
It would depend what type you were looking for this is great https://debbieshoresewing.com/haberdashery/adhesives/gutermann-ht2-wet-textile-glue/ these pens are out of stock at the moment but they are good for holding things in place like a zip while you sew https://debbieshoresewing.com/haberdashery/adhesives/sewline-fabric-glue-pen-and-refill/ and then there is this spray glue 250ml: https://debbieshoresewing.com/haberdashery/odif-505-temporary-fabric-adhesive-spray-250ml/ 500ml: https://debbieshoresewing.com/haberdashery/adhesives/odif-505-temporary-fabric-adhesive-spray-500ml/
