Thanks Sue, since making one a few years ago I’ve never used my foot without it. If you buy the nonslip from a charity shop you usually get a pack of two, one of these when cut will make 9 !! I did this one during a group and was able to give them all a piece of the nonslip to go home and make their own. A nice quick, cheap make. x

You can easily spend the day in Wells Lin, it’s a great place to visit with the added bonus of the shop!! You will see either myself Jules (owner) or Sarah when you visit. You will have to mention you seen and read this to whoever serves you. Hoping you will find plenty of goodies too!

Morning Anne, hard to judge, I really didn’t use many. A dessert spoon I think will be plenty, just have some extra fabric at the ready to cut up and use just in case you find it is too much. Would be interesting to hear how you get on with that amount. A tip from using ours, after using a fair amount both mine and his through the summer, they…[Read more]
