    This pattern is just about four years old and has not been used as yet......

    It calls for the use of a Japanese hole punch...
    has anyone any idea what a Japanese hole punch is and where one might acquire one??????????????

    I have researched it on Google and others, but have not really found much info on them.

    This was an ultra suede blanket that Martha made with Doris Roberts (her guest that day) and was then put on EBay and the profits went to the homeless. It was back in 2006 when Doris Roberts made that movie about the homeless. It really was so different and really fast. They finished it almost entirely on the show...........

    but of course, ladies, we are not Martha.......perhaps it might take us two days.
    like, YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Any info on the hole punch, would be appreciated......thanks, mj

    You could use a regular hole punch...like what you'd use for eyelets or snaps...the difference is that with the Japanese hole punch it has a twisting mechanism that turns the hole punch in a circle to facilitate cutting.

    You can get one here on Bonanzle:
