Where did you find the metal template? I've heard of plastic and cardboard templates, but never metal. Interesting.

Thanks, Cathie. I'm thinking about making 2 more and making a table runner with them.

Thank you, Pam. I don't have enough to make a quilt. :( But I am planning to make a table runner or wall hanging.

Good idea, Loretta. I used interfacing and did the same thing. I still goofed up the circle though. Need more practice I guess. :roll:

Oh what a excellent eye for colors....this is going to be beautiful. You must keep going as we will be wanting to see the final results. Wish I was this good with colors.

A table runner or wall hanging will be wonderful too. Glad you have enough for that. I really like it!!
