I am making felt Halloween decorations and need a reliable way to add eyelets to the finished piece. After trying a hand punch with horrible results, I purchased this punch set. I hit 2 layers of felt with a plastic hammer in 4 hits. The catalogs that I don't need and that come in the mail make the perfect layer under the felt to protect the table top. I used a 3/16 inch punch because I use thick yarn for lacing. Works great and I'm happy with the result.
