		Making Templates: Trace pattern pieces on clear template plastic, or trace on paper and glue the tracing to plastic, cardboard or the reverse side of sandpaper. For appliqué or hand-pieced patches, trace the seam line; marked cutting lines are optional. For machine-pieced patches, trace the cutting line, including the seam allowance in the template. Cut out accurately. Make a sample block to test the accuracy of your templates before cutting the entire quilt. Back to Basic Lessons
