    Default Mini ARDCO templates - 3-3/4 " unfnished LeMoyne star
    I had to see if these templates "worked"

    I think they do!

    This definitely gets to be a "retro" way of doing something - but I had fun!

    The star is hand-pieced (technically - it was pieced with thread pulled through by a needle - guided by me)

    Very precise! Looks great but too much work for me. Heck, I have trouble doing it by machine sometimes without trying to do it by hand. I give all of you that do hand work kudos!

    Very nice. I love those little blocks. Just don't want to do too many of them myself. Keep the pics coming.

    It was all the talk about hexagons that influenced me to purchase these templates.
