Actually I didn't use a base. I Cut long strips of fabric, didn't measaure them. I wanted them to have a wonky look when sewed together. Sewed similar shades together. Starched the heck out of them cause some of the fabric wanted to move around or stretch when ironed. I used a 4 and 1/4 inch templet while cutting the pieces. Each time I cut a new square I would change the direction of the templet.
I like to think outside of the box, put me in a box and I will go mad.
