    Red face Quilting Templates

    I have a quick inexpensive quilting template I use the thin cutting boards that you can get anywhere I get from the Dollar Store and use that. Luv all the tips that everyone posts

    Great idea! I was shocked at how expensive Template Plastic sheets were last time I bought them.

    I agree about the high cost of template plastic. The last one I bought had grids on it, so that was nice.

    I decided to save money and purchased some nice template plastic from Home Depot. My brother took the plastic and my template pattern home. He was suppose to cut it for me. That was the last time I ever saw it! His wife found the template & plastic on top of their refrigerator about six months later. He told her, "OMG, don't tell my sister!"

    I buy my plastic at Lowe's and cut it with a very sharp knife. Works for me. I have made quite a few.
