Like the tumbler. Going to have to try one of those (right after the 100 or so things on my TO DO list)
Good start on the scrapy.

Yep. I used graph paper, and took a ruler from point to point that I wanted, added a seam allowance (I used the 4 square to an inch graph paper so I know each square is .25"), then traced it onto the clear plastic template, cut it out and traced it onto the fabric.
