Thank you for the advise and suggestions. I THINK I finally got EQ to print the star template properly. If I want it bigger, I'll utilize the copier enlargement function at work. I think I'll applique the circles down to the large (on-point) center section - so no piecing needed there. The challenge will be the center star - but I'm willing to give it a go. I'll try traditional piecing, but might resort to PP'ing if needed. Then I hope to applique the entire star down to the background. Can you tell I'm very comfortable with applique...but very hesitant with PP'ing. hahaha! I'll keep y'all posted on the progress. =)
Blessings,
