Does your pattern include templates or do you have to draw your own? I saw a pattern online yest. where you had to create your own. I'm so grateful I was given plastic templates when a friend shared her pattern with me.
I hope your pattern tells you to use "scant" 1/4" seams when you sew your strips together. If you don't, your templates may not fit top to bottom. There is no room for error on the fit. Also, do not cut off the uneven end of your strip set. You will need the space for the corners of your templates. This may sound confusing to you if you haven't read your pattern carefully but it all falls together eventually.
