It really isn't hard. Essentially all you are doing is sewing your squares together and then putting your borders on. Once you've done that, you position the ruler on the intersect lines (beginning in the top left corner and proceed with every intersection) cutting around the ruler. Then, you resew the squares you've cut. That's all there is to it.

Was this a pattern in a book or your original design. Love it?

The books for Twister are: Let's Twist, and there's also Let's Twist again. Websites for Twister patterns: www.gatheringroomquiltshop.com (they have the pattern for the wreath), www.handcraftsbyjennifer.com, and www.marthadzines.com.
