I also used a card template to make mine. Fun to make.
I also made a large twister. I wanted to make a full size quilt but I decided to make a table runner first to see if I liked it. Table runner turned out ok but, I liked the little twister better. I just thought the little one looked better and seemed to waste less fabric. That is just my opnion.
I hope to make a large quilt soon with the little twister.
