Have you made any of the other quilts in that book? I haven't as, I've been busy making a lap quilt from the QuiltTrip Quilts. I love those quilts, haven't tried the Quick Quarter Quilts, just the Trip around the World, which is so easy and turns out to look so hard....Wanda
Wanda, I made the wreath a page or two before the wedding ring page.

What I did was enlarge the template for the fusible by 1/4 inch. After I sewed the fabrics together using the template in the back of the book, I used the enlarged template for the fusible and traced it on the fusible. Then you sew on the line you just traced and trim to 1/8 inch. (I tried it the size of the template in the back of the book and it looked too narrow and whimpy is why I enlarged it.)

I bought 2 yards of each 6 fabrics, but I only really needed about 1 yard. Then because I am making 5 rows across and 6 down I got 7 yards of background fabric and that is including the scalloped border in that yardage. I'll post pics in a day or two.

I'm actually making 2 at the same time.

Hope this helps!
