I?m trying to make a bag for my stepmum & I want to firm up the base to put feet on. I have a plastic mesh but it?s still not very firm. Anyone have any ideas how to firm up base?

Hi , can you tell me if Debbie has ever made heat wraps, that can be warmed up in microwave. If so did she produce a pattern and what did she put in them. Thank From Pauline x

Hi. I wondered if there is a way to search for questions asked about the Seminole Quilt without having to scroll through every question? And also is it possible to set up alerts for when your question is answered? Thanks

Does anyone make and sell the toys from Debbie's patterns and if so have you managed to find any of the fabrics that Debbie sells that have been tested to en71-3 standard to comply with CE/ CAUK toy safety regulations.... Sorry bit long winded, so many fabric companies don't see toy makers as their main market and so do not test their fabric to the above standard... Thanks in advance Denise
Debbie replied: 10 Sep 21 at 14:33
I'm afraid the fabrics don't have this certification, as you say, our suppliers are mainly quilt and dressmaking fabrics so they don't have the teses done...

thanks for replying, basically i can't figure out how the piece has been rolled before sewing the final seam as shown in photo 5, page 90, half Yard Vintage book. Maybe I've made a mistake prior to step 5 though. be great if you could demo it sometime
Debbie replied: 10 Sep 21 at 07:56
The tube is rolled so that the raw edges are right sides together, so the whole bowl is actually inside the two pieces of fabric that need to be joined, does that help?
