:) :) :) I hope you saved the card board that came with the ruler as there are ideas on the back for using this ruler. I'm going to try that big circle that is on the back of it. After I get a few more projects done tho. Have a great day, Huggies, Fay

:) :) :) :) No it is not hard to do at all, but do read all the instructions and she did the math for you too. I would print out several of the little things that she has on it to mark off what you cut and such. I used some post it notes to write down how large my wedge was and after getting them all cut out, I separated them and lay the largest one down and then lay the rest down until you get to the smallest one as that is the one you will start sewing with. You'll be doing it in a chainstitch method and that goes fast. You 'll be sewing from the pointed part of the wedges each time you sew another wedge on. This is what makes the curve. Later after you get them all sewn together, you will shape the outer part of the runner in an arch and trim. I'm going to make one for Christmas and use some of my metallic threads and sew some feather stitches over the seams and I bet that will be so pretty. I have some pretty Christmas fabrics that I can cut into fat quarters and I'll do that later maybe in the fall. Every one enjoy your day and yes I posted the link where you can purchase the pattern and ruler. Huggies, Fay
