Using Paper Templates
I have been quilting a few years now, but have never used a paper template, (I know, you can smack me on the hand if you like, I deserve it)and now I am making a quilt block from the Oxmoors Christmas Quilt Block Book that uses paper templates, this particular block is a christmas tree that uses triangles for the tree, with another triangle that is inset inside the tree..does that make sense?? I have traced the template, added a quarter inch, matched my dots, etc but the thing just keeps coming out wonky (for lack of a better word). I paper piece some so I thought this wouldn't be much different, boy was I wrong..Does anyone know of an easy tutorial that I might read in order to make this process click for me...
