"Not sure what you're saying ... that there are instructions for making another tool, when you purchase the Lil Twister? Or that these instructions are somewhere else, so you don't need to purchase?[/quote]
See if this is clearer: There are tutorials on the web on both how to use the Twister TOOL and how to Make a tool very SIMILAR. The book has several variations of the basic patterns. My book--the first on twisters--did not have the wreath, but I found it on the board. I believe the twister is possibly a spinoff from a quilt originally called "Magic Pinwheels" featured in an Australian magazine a few years ago. I think that the purchased tool is a good deal.
Bonnie, I think the tree won't be too hard. Now I want to play with the heart too!
