General instructions
* All seams are sewn with 1/4” seam allowance.
* Skill level intermediate.
* With heavy template material, make templates A,
B, C, D, E, F, and G from page ....If there are templates covering two pages, cut out paper template
parts, line up the matching lines and tape together
before making the plastic template.
* To avoid cutting into the template material when
fussy-cutting, use a ruler lined up along the edge
of the template before trimming.
*** In order to get the medallions cut out correctly,
it is important to follow the cutting illustrations.
Cutting Instructions (based on 42” wide)
