Debbie,have you made a simple bowl cosy.Irun a centre for the elderly and we are learning to sew,i thought a bowl cosy would be a easy project for them to start with.You have a diamond cosy in the projects,but i think that would be to hard for them to start with. Diane .

I think Debbie was asked about a bowl cosy on the last live but she said she hadn’t made one. I have checked her You Tube Videos and this is the closest I can see on there https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XH3AwyUOEu4 so this might help.

Another question regarding the tote with cork. Would the fusible craft fleece be too stiff ? Would the 630 be best?
Laura replied: 27 Nov 24 at 10:00
I think the fusible craft fleece would be fine for a tote with cork. H 630 is quite light and soft so wouldn’t use that for larger bags but more for smaller projects like pouches and cosmetic bags etc.

I have some cork I want to use for the bottom third of a tote bag. I’ve tried looking for a tutorial which I’m sure Debbie has done but can’t see one. Can anyone help please?
Laura replied: 25 Nov 24 at 21:23
This video might help you in the first instance https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=63ajStvaUGg Once you know the technique you can add cork to the base of any bag where Debbie demonstrates adding a coordinating base to the bag. Debbie has also got a download for a cork based bag on her website if you were thinking of that one.

I went to my account and manage my subscription but there was no drop down from there to cancel. I am quite worried as £60 was automatically taken off my bank and I did not want to renew.

Hi, I'm looking for some advice on interfacing. I'm going to make Christmas gift bags, probably drawstring, and was wondering about interfacing. I had a practice run using H630 but it's a little too chunky. What have you used for gift bags/sacks? I thought G700 would work but info says it's for small items like collars/cuffs. Any advice appreciated.

Hi I'm new to the hysc I'm working on making my first project the rabbit laundry bag. But I've got most of it done but I've read the instructions 5 times now and my hubby has and I can't find anything that says where and what to attach the head with. Help please.
barb replied: 22 Nov 24 at 05:17
Welcome. It’s at the end of step 23….copied below. Or take a look at the video around 58 minutes in. Good luck To add the head, squeeze fabric glue down the back seam of the rabbit's neck and across the bottom of the head piece. Position the head to sit centrally on the inside of the bag's back piece. Leave this to dry before adding some overedge hand stitches so the head is extra secure.
