    do you mean this shop?? http://www.primitivegatherings.us/sh...productId=7244 - I saw the tool for 18.00 but not 5.00. I am thinking I like the idea of drawing the line on a regular ruler. But $18.00 is not that bad.

    I made my own tool & did mine. I did a wreath in xmas fabrics & added another round to the wreath. Then, with the little squares I ended up with, I did a mini wreath the same way. Love how they both turned out, need to take pics & post them soon. You really don't need the tool, make your own & save your money for fabric. These are so fun to play with!

    I put clear tape on my ruler and traced the lines from the instruction sheet.

    This is the first time I've posted with multiple pics.....I'm hoping everything shows up ok
    Thanks for the pic on how to make a template, I picked one up today at Joanns with my 40% coupon and am now ready to at least make a wreath or runner !!!

    I have the twister in small an large and love it
    but if you can come up with an idea how to use your ruler go for it because it is pricey

    In a post a long while back, I linked to a tutorial on Kim's web site. I guess since then, she renamed the page, so here is the current link:
