Julie R.’s winning answer to “What is your favorite post on Think Crafts?” was…

“My favorite post right now is one that was just posted yesterday: the felt Thanksgiving Table Runner. I love felt! I liked the idea of using a cookie cutter for a template. I usually just cut felt out free form, but sometimes I want to reproduce a shape exactly, and I’d never thought of using a cookie cutter. Tips like this are ones where I think, “Now, why didn’t I think of that?!” I didn’t, so Thank You!”
