    thanks getting a little better at it, and did buy a ruler like you suggested with "LOTS" of markings, and the press board I made up presses them much better than the ironing board. If you look at my Avatar, The Cat in the Hat was much easier to do, no points to line up, I could applique that old cat and Horton wherever I wanted them to be, lololo

    If you are just talking about Template No. 1, it should be a 2 and 1/2 inch square.
