    I just bought the Yellow Brick Road pattern the other day and then realized that it is a rotary-cut strip-pieced pattern. I am a hand-piecer and prefer to use templates. I tried to figure out the measurements of each piece myself but am hitting a road block. Any hand-piecers out there who can help me? I am a beginner quilter (obviously :) ). Thanks!

    Get a pencil, ruler and paper and draw the finished block - no seam allowances..

    Cut it apart on your drawn lines and you have your templates...

    Oh my Lord that was almost too easy. I didn't even think about that! Thanks! :)

    Remember to add a 1/4 inch seam allowance on each side of the templates.
