  Loved making the storage pyramid, thank you Debbie. Have decided I am better seeing videos rather than just reading patterns. Now need to learn how to make a boxed pouch and would love to make an overnight holdall.

  Chris asked:

  I’m thinking I would like to make the wonky circular cover into a foot stool. How do I measure for the side piece. Will it need to be cut in the bias. Thanks in advance

  Laura replied: 9 Jul 25 at 20:50

  The Garden Pouffe would be a good project to use as a basis for your project. The instructions describe how to adapt the size to make your own stool in the size you require. You will find it here https://www.halfyardsewingclub.com/projects/garden-pouffe I hope this helps 😊

  Glenys asked:

  Can anyone tell me please, when making the wrap skirt, am I correct in thinking that the elastic is not fully encased in a fabric waistband?

  Julia asked:

  Hi, I would like to have a go at the wrap skirt in viscose - I have to admit to being a size 22 - working on it and I would love the skirt to be floor length - I am 5 foot 6 and I am unsure what amount of fabric to buy. Also, would I use the width of the fabric for the length and choose an amount to go around me? Sounds expensive already! Sorry for being such a dimwit!

  Ali asked:

  Hi can anyone advise how best to put an invisible zip in the left side of a skirt with a waistband please. I get as far as sewing the zip as far as the zip pull but not sure how to get around the zip pull and am left with a small hole. I’ve tried sewing as far as I can and stop before the zip pull and have then taken it out, pinned the seam flat and sewn down but it still either puckers or I’m left with a bit unsewn. Any help gratefully received. Thank you.

  Laura replied: 7 Jul 25 at 09:24

  This video from Debbie might help as she shows the invisible zip technique 😊 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GyXb6Dbqzl0
