It wasn't entirely successful though, as it only cut about 3/4 of the star and then the flannel vanished inside the punch. Once I'd flattened the tiny flannel balls, they became stars with just a bit of trimming. Now WINDY is a good idea, just wasn't sure how I'd execute it.Library Quinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07453980399566078753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-658237264638998818.post-19862938690542175082012-01-28T05:59:28.645+00:002012-01-28T05:59:28.645+00:00Thanks for all the ideas Mollie.
