I am looking forward to trying the new mini bubble template that came in the January 2026 Sew Sampler box.
I’m a little disappointed that the pattern calls for 10″ square batting and 8″ was in our Sew Sampler Box. The pattern calls for charm packs and we get a Layer Cake, which I get, we can cut it into charm packs, but the video is also for the large template and we got the small. There are so many mismatches and that’s the intro into this new product. I’m sure I’ll be able to figure it out, it was just a frustrating introduction to this new item and technique.
This is a great way to use up all the scrap and left over batting. Also all the layer cakes I have stashed.
