I saw a good one somewhere for larger circles. (I know it's not needle turn, but it's a great tip!)

You sew the circle onto a used dryer sheet or some other really thin material and turn it out then applique it onto your project.

I wish I'd known this before piecing my Dresden Plates. I was basting and pulling threads around a plastic template made from a for sale sign

I'm trying to visualize this, but not getting it.

Sew it onto the used dryer sheet pretty side down. Cut a slit in the dryer sheet and turn it inside out.

I didn't get to do this on the circles for my Dresden Plate but it sounds like it would work great
