Greetings and welcome from another New Hampshire-ite
I second Debbie's suggestion to contact Rhonda - she'll send you a couple free of charge - a really nice and generous lady
If they are squares or rectangles I have the local glass guy cut them from plexiglass - very inexpensive. Make sure to say accuracy is critical.
I'm moronic on NH geography - if you're near Newport: On Wednesdays (tomorrow I'll be there) Gail Peck holds an open-sew at her shop Quilters Workshop on Main Street (Rte 10) from 10 am til late afternoon. You can bring your machine or do handsewing. Gail has an ironing board, iron and cutting board set up for us.

Welcome from N.E.GA,I don`t use templates much.I am a rotary cutter/ruler type of gal.You might want to check at Joanns,I saw some at our local one.Also a friend of mine has a auto glass cutting place cut some for her,she takes in the pattern.Just make sure it is in the public domain,such as the strips for log cabin,rail fence etc or quite a few more.You don`t want to get in trouble with someones patent.Also those patent and such don`t last as long as we all think.I talked to an attorney friend of mine and he said that generally 25 years,not a lifetime as some would have us beleive.

Do you have a quilt shop or just an avid quilter. I'm just beginning and have a quilt top and need put it together. Do you ever get to Henniker? I love the Quilted Thread they have such beautiful material. When and it you want to meet me in Henniker just let me know.

The flip flop one by Kathie Alyce, the apple core, hexagon, octogan this type. I was going to Baycreek Templates but I was told be very careful because of copyright infringements. I'm trying to locate them at reasonable prices but I don't want junk. I have been searching on e-bay found a few but hesitated.
