Really nice Like the design

your tree is really nice. I have the large twister tool but not used it yet.

Those "twisters" are SO FUN, AND your tree is darling~ ♥

I like that ... just purchased the twister template at shop hop and plan on making it this month... thanks for sharing

Just checking ... is it 5" fabric squares and the twister plastic tool is 3-1/2" ??

And the 10" fabric squares, what size is the plastic?

And the Mini sized one ... what size for both?

would hate to cut and sew ... and then discover I have the wrong size of plastic. THANKS!

like it...my friend and I had several size templates cut at Lowes

Can you possibly help me out with my question about fabric and plastic sizes? And perhaps there are more sizes than I have asked about above?
Please? and Thanks!

Love your color layout. I have bookmarked this and will probably steal your layout idea! I have the same rows, etc., but couldn't decide on how to do the colors. Thanks!

I also went for a simpler trunk.. It's not perfect but if I can find the right fabric for borders, I'll finish it soon. I think it needs a red stopper and something with gold in it for outside border. I've been to 3 quilt shops in last couple of days, but haven't found final border yet. I'll probably use the red from garland for stopper border.

Looks nice and Christmas-y ... I really like this one!
Hope you find the fabric you want for the border. That sometimes is the most frustrating part, isn't it? You know what you want ... and can't find it!

When you say smaller ... what size are your fabric squares? and what size of plastic template did you use?
Please? and Thanks!
