A freind gave me those templates, some of them are in invelopes like kits, with a picture of the block illustrated , but most of them are loose like in the picture below
How can I use them ??? Which triangle ? for what block ? with what pieces??? [ATTACH=CONFIG]571535[/ATTACH] Thank you for your help or any advices |
Looks like templates for English Paper Piecing(EPP)?
|
I see stamps/nameplates on them. Can you trace them on the internet? maybe instructions are available from their home base.
|
They may have originally been made specifically for a particular block, however, you can just use them as generic shapes. I would measure each side of every piece and use an permanent marker to write this info on the template, then use them for whatever project you are working on. If they are thick enough, you may be able to use them with a rotary cutter, but be very careful!

small templates like that, i would trace around them and cut with scissors. safer. Since you have so many, you might try just laying some out and fit together like a puzzle. good luck.

If they are for English Paper Piecing, here is a site with some ways you can use them.

It might be wise to purchase this set from ebay, just for the instructions. That might help de-mystify the process for the other templates. I found this post. Sounds like the Quiltery was a British company long ago out of business.

You could use several of them for this (gorgeous!) quilt:
