I took the Craftsy class and bought the DWR Craftsy kit which I have not used yet. Class was very good but I like the looks of round rings better than the squarish ones and I decided I would like to use acrylic templates. I like the non slippage feature of the Creative Grid templates and they can be used with Judy Neimeyer patterns (on my to-do list someday) so I bought them. The DWR Craftsy kit only has 7 different sections(fabrics) in each 1/4 ring and CG has 8. CG has the markings for the individual sections but not the templates. Recently, there was a post here Downton Abbey DWR (do an advance search) and that person just adjusted the CG to use the 7 fabrics. It is beautiful and now I'm anxious to start mine. I have also seen on YouTube the CG used and the 1/4 rings done in solid fabric rather than pieced. Easier and lovely too. Good luck!
