Once it's back, I'll cut it out to reduce the bulk in the center circle.

Using the PP method made everything MUCH simpler. I've got the pattern for three sizes (this one is the smallest) if anyone is interested. You need a wedge ruler.
Thanks Lori! I thought maybe it was seminole. Hey, PP! I can DO that now! :D
