Did you try "Grandmothers Secret Spot Remover"? You can get it at Hobby Lobby and I've seen it listed at "Quilt in a Day" That might take the stain out

You might try www.PaperPieces.com
They have all kinds of info about Enlish Paper Piecing. They don't have the punches but they do have didn't sizes you can print out on paper. The Creative Memories punch I have has 2 different sizes of hexagons. 3/4" & 1" (that measurement is just one of the 6 sides) I love your flowers. Great find!

I use old manilla file folders for the hexagons & cut a 2" square of fabric for the 1" hexagons. I have over 60 flowers done now. It is my take along project for appts. or wherever I might be waiting for something. I love doing it.

Fabulous. I made one last year using the Gradma's Flower Garden and YoYos. They were minis. I sewed the Flowers to 3/ 1/2" strips wide by WOF at appox 2 3/4". I filled in around the Flowers with 2-3 mini YoYo. Only issue with the minis is they take a long time and can be tough on the hands when hand sewing.
Happy Quilting. |
