That is your best bet. I too prefer the method where the edge of the plate template is a straight cut and you make a seam to form a pocket and turn them out. Much like Tartan describes in her tutorial here:

But before you commit, make sure you have enough fabric in the kit to change your template for the plate blades. I suspect you will but better to be safe.
