Hello, I joined the HYSC recently and don't really understand the system clearly. I had hoped to try the Twisted Cats BOTM but seem to only have the template for the mouse from that block. Are the cats coming at another time or are they accessed from a different source? Jean.

Welcome. No templates needed for the cats. These are made by making up squares and joining as shown on the instructions. Read though the steps and all will be clear! Any issue just ask back here Good luck

Hi does anyone know where I can purchase letter templates? I am thinking of making a Happy Birthday banner & wondered what interfacing to use to make a robust but easy to fold banner possibly using Debbie’s House templates. Thank you
Rita H replied: 12 Jun 26 at 20:03
Hi Wendy - On Debbie's website look on Downloads (page 8) there are Alphabet applique shapes, upper & lower case, also numbers and punctuation marks. They may be suitable for your birthday banner.

I am in the process of making the cat block of the month and in step 9 it says the block should be 5 1/2” square but I trimmed mine to 6” square and this meant the final step was correct size wise.
Mandy replied: 15 Jun 26 at 20:59
Mine is 6 1/4 so I’ll take it down to 6”, thank you for posting, I thought it was me

Can you buy waterproof lining material? I am making a beach bag.
Laura replied: 7 Jun 26 at 16:09
You can use rip stock which is lightweight and water resistant or perhaps a shower curtain would suit your needs as I have used one as a lining for wash bags etc.

Hi apart from the blue & green stripe does anyone know where the other colours come from as I can’t see on DS sewing site. Thank uou
Laura replied: 7 Jun 26 at 16:06
My initial answer said where to find fat quarters but looking at the pattern you might need more than that. I think I would do any lining or unseen bits with a plain or perhaps a calico so not to waste the loveliness of the striped fabric. You might also find some striped pillowcases in the usual stores which might be a cheaper source of fabric 😊

How or where is the fabric to purchase please?
barb replied: 6 Jun 26 at 10:21
There is nothing for sale on this site. Debbieshoresewing.com is where to look.

Hi, I have made two batwing tops but both neck bands seem a bit loose. Can anyone help with advice on how to fix this? I don't think my photos will help! Many thanks

I have lost the code for free postage for sewing street can you help
Laura replied: 4 Jun 26 at 12:41
I don’t think free postage was an offer on HYSC. There is a code for 15% off purchases from Sewing Street under blog so that is worth a look. We wouldn’t give codes on the forum as non members would be able to view and use.
