I made a quilt this past fall (finished it on Thanksgiving)using the fun and done technique but I didn't have the template because with the template you can only make one size block, a 12inch I think. My blocks were 10 inches. I painted the 50 state birds on white background with 6 flower appliqued alternate blocks to make an attractive layout. I love the fun and done! I was able to do a lot of fm quilting that I couldn't have done on a full quilt top. I think it would be easier to cut the batting to the correct size with the template but it can be done without it. The only trouble I had was keeping the seam allowance from stretching when you fold it over to top stitch but using school glue to tack it down really helps. I wish I knew how to put a picture on here to show the quilt. Anyway, I will probably be making all my quilts with this technique.
