I'm just wondering, in the February project could you use felt to make the flowers for the centre piece ?
Laura replied: 2 Feb 24 at 11:54
I would think you could make the shapes with a very soft felt?I don?t think you would need to cut squares and fold as per the material as I would just cut the half square from the felt. Perhaps just try a couple of sample pieces to see if the felt shapes and folds in the same way as Debbie?s flowers.

Hi I've never quilted before. I've cut a couple of pieces out wrong. If in worst case scenario.I run out of certain colour will I be able to purchase more of the same colour?
Laura replied: 2 Feb 24 at 12:09
Just to add as well as it is your first quilt, make sure you read the instructions under the Welcome to the quilt heading on the project page. This will give you the instructions to cut some of your material for the larger pieces of fabric you will need for your quilt before you start so that you know that you will have enough fabric for these larger pieces put back for when you need them (see excerpt from the page as follows . Before you start: I would suggest that before you start to make any of the blocks you cut out the following larger background pieces from FAB10 (sky) to ensure you have enough fabric to complete the quilt: Block 3: One 4? x 10in (11.5 x 25.5cm) strip and one 14? x 10in (37 x 25.5cm) strip Block 8: One 18? x 8? (47 x 21.5cm) strip and one 10 x 12?in (25.5 x 31.75cm) strip Block 12: One 8? x 19in (21.5 x 48.25cm) strip

Finished another quilt, same colour way as the first. I had never made a quilt until last year when I made the QAYG with Debbie, thanks to the club I am now able to do others.

Hello. All the beanie hats, female,male and child are due to come off the site today 31 January. However the code for the videos has not been added to the normal instruction pages. Can the team add the code please? Thank you ????

Hello HYSC. Thank but unfortunately I was rushed to hospital. I haven't checked but if already taken down, is there a way I can still access the videos? Thank you.

Anybody here made this cosmetic pouch with patch pocket? What is the finished size please? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8oS0UMEkOKI

This is my first B.O.M quilt and I have purchased everything that I need, watched Debbie's tutorial and am eager to start. However I can't work out at which stage I apply the wadding and backing fabric. Do I apply wadding as I go along or complete the quilt and then apply the wadding and back the complete quilt?
Kay replied: 29 Jan 24 at 22:41
Hi Deb The wadding and backing is added once you have completed the block in November Kay x
