Lori, I didnt use templates. I used Eleanors fusible method and they are then appliqued. I did make one years ago with cardboard templates,and would never try it again. Els way is very easy,just LOOKS hard!

Well, my goodness, I'm speechless. No I'm not - Caroline, this is beautiful and it looks extremely hard to me. Piecing all those curves. You are sure a talented lady.

Gorgeous, love that background fabric. Like everyone has said, it looks difficult, and has lots of matching to do. Great job! hugs, carol/kittyquilt

That is beautiful Caroline! I think it will look nice with the black border. Is that a Drunkard's Path? I think that is in the Egg Money book if I'm not mistaken. I'd like to try that someday!
