How to Use the Dresden Plate Templates:

1. Attach a grippy material like True Grips to the back (etched side) stop the template from slipping while you cut.

2. For Templates #1, #3, #5, cut a 5-inch strip of fabric, then cut out the petal shape, alternating the direction of the template to waste the least amount of fabric.

For the curved-edge templates (#2, #4, #6), cut a 5 1/4-inch strip of fabric, then cut out the straight sides of the petal shape, then the top curve carefully.

New! Cut shapes from narrower strips using the new etched lines on the templates.
