I flunked Art. Only class I didn't get an A in all through junior high. To this day, drawing and portraits are not my thing! Still going to follow along though. I respect Art, just don't "do" Art.
Hey, I used rulers AND a pair of compasses and measured everything to be sure each segment was identical! AND I did LOTS of erasing too! You HAVE to do that as you're making applique templates. You get artsy fartsy with the FMQ. You can do this, I've seen your work, I know you're up to it. :-D
You really do? She just did it freehand and so at ease!
