Default My First Attempt at a Celtic Knot

Eepert, I'm happy with how this turned out! I am working on a quilt that I want to put celtic knots on, so I did a test run tonight.

I tried the freezer paper, and no, it didn't work too well! LOL* I'd like to order the silicon sheets to make more intricate knots - but until then I think I'll just do these right on the quilt.

Yes they are! I bought the second size up - I wasn't sure truly what size I wanted to work with. I think this one is just under 1/2"? I'll have to go run and look...my Mother loaned me one that was 1/2" and it was too wide so I went and bought the next size down that I don't think is a true 1/4".

I peeked, it's 3/8 of an inch - so between 1/4 and 1/2. What a weird size!

Thanks guys!!
