You’re welcome! Try the clover yoyo makers too if you want to make yoyos – they may make it easier.

This little house block is what got me into hand sewing. I have now done the blossie basket, and now trying the apple pin cushion which is alot harder, however I’m still learning and having fun. Thank you Nic

Hi Janelle! Love to hear this. I mainly machine sew the apple quarters together if that helps! (I do hand sew the quarters as well!) Nic
Looking forward to learning how to hand sew a quilt as I don’t do sewing machines at all
