A simple, clear excellent tutorial. You explain and show what you are doing very well. Where did you get the hollow punch?

[@SewaSoftie]

Hi Toni, Thanks for your lovely comment. I bought my hollow punch at an auto (car) store. You can also get them at the hardware store. I ABSOLUTELY love them!!!

Thank you for this tutorial. I have tried with a hollow punch but it won't cut through the felt, can I sharpen the punch?

[@SewaSoftie]

Hi! I don't think hollow punches can be sharpened. If its a new punch and its not working try giving it a few more wacks with the hammer. I put my felt on hard wood and then wack it. If the circle is only half being cut out it means you need to wack harder! Hope this helps :)

I'm interested in cutting heart shapes from felt with my granddaughters CRICKET machine. I also want to cut a circle shape in the center, and insert family photos behind the heart........do you have any information on how to cut a circle from a pre cut shape of felt using the CRICKET?

[@SewaSoftie]

Hi Sue, I don't know a lot about the cricut machine. But they do have a facebook page where you can ask questions. See how that goes! Trixi

Can you explain how to iron on the freezer paper

[@SewaSoftie]

Freezer paper usually has instructions on the packet on how to use it :)

Hmmm... I finally followed Ann's advice and took Woodglut. It's great for beginners and has some advanced stuff too.
