Wow, that is small. Try googling it? Or draft one if you have the larger.
|
How do you draft one?
|
I have that size, but I bought mine at a shop in Seattle this fall. But I think you can buy one at ww.country-schoolhouse.com or you can call them at 715-398-0150.

One that small is going to be hard. I did my own at 2 inches and I traced around it with a pencil and rough cut the squares out with scissors. (It's really hard to keep pressure on a square that small and rotary cut around it)Once I had them rough cut with scissors, I then used the rotary cutter and twister square to straighten them. I put my small square on my small omni mat and turned the mat to do both sides. Make sure to keep track of where each square goes. I did one row at a time and reassembled as I went. Good Luck!

I am pretty sure someone here did a small doll quilt and posted it in the pictures section with it
This is a mug rug with the 2 1/4that someone did |
I believe this is what you are looking for, it is included with the pattern - HTH :o)

If you have a larger version of the twister and you have a 1 1/2" plastic template, then just place the template over the larger twister square and follow the lines. No matter what size, smaller or larger, you can duplicate it yourself. Linda

I made my own template from cardboard and then traced around it with pencil and used scissors. I used scraps from the wall hanging. [ATTACH=CONFIG]296305[/ATTACH]

make your own....go to hardware and see if they can cut ya a 1 1/2" square....mark quarter of an inch from right corner (mark with a T for top) and then rotate right and mark all the way around, connect the lines top to bottom....I have a package of square templates I bought somewhere and marked the 3" one this way. We want to see the mini when you get it done....the picture is of 3 ½ and the 6 ½

I tried to post this before, didn't show up! To draft your own use your existing twister tool (no matter what size) and use a 1 1/2" template on top of the twister tool. Square them up, and use a marker to line up the "twisted lines" from the center. I used an additional ruler to make sure the lines were trully straight. This will work on a larger template as well. The angles are worked out mathmatically and will translate into any size. Linda
