    Here it is. Unfortunately it is not on sale anymore. It was one of their daily deals.

    Why not use the wide, bottom, edge of a dresden plate template, or one of the other stack and whack type templates. The 30degree simpli-ez works well for a charm square. Just align the bottom line that fits, on mine it is the 8.5 mark and cut the excess. Just remember to cut all patches right side up, you are going to reverse them when you sew. One template, many applications. The stack and whack, 15 degree template works real good for 3" strips just in case you want to make a mini tumbler quilt.

    But then I'd have to have the Dresden Plate template, or one of the others you mention. Hmmm, maybe that's not such a bad idea.

    I remember I took a workshop from John Flynn over a decade ago, and he provided templates he made from ... LINEOLUM. Remember THAT, anyone???

    That means that I would have to go get a cat first :shock:
    Thank you, I was just thinking that. But I think a cat would scare my greyhounds.

    Does anyone have the link for the tumbler Template - I tried looking it up but there were hundreds of pages to sort through

    I missed the sale but ordered it anyway as I've been looking for this template. There is a 3" template page I found yesterday on quilterscache.com but I like the 5" better--the quilt will go faster and I'm always looking for faster to do anything! I'm lazy!

    If any of you that are looking for the 'tumbler' and happen to have the Accuquilt GO cutter they have that die in 2 sizes. I loved making a tumbler lap quilt. They are fun and easy to make. Enjoy

    Our local Hardware store will also cut templates.
