Acrylic Perspex Templates

Laser-cut 3mm Acrylic Perspex Templates - Custom-made to Order - from your Pattern

The Laser-Cutter has been running hot lately, busily cutting lots of 3mm Acrylic (Perspex) templates for orders and samples.

We are getting lots of terrific feedback from customers, who have ordered acrylic templates for different uses:  Patchwork, Quilting, Applique, Scrapbooking, Paper Piecing (for tracing), and even sewing projects - like pocket shapes for machine embroidery. 

We use Auto-Cad to convert  the scanned or emailed shapes into the computer, then program this into the Laser-Cutter.  It's so fast! My friends at the Melbourne Modern Quilt Guild had been trialling these templates for me earlier this year, with great results, and it's rewarding to receive repeat orders from satisfied customers.   

6 Translucent colours: Orange, Yellow, Fluro Pink, Fluro Green, Pale Blue & Clear

• or re-scale a block pattern to a different size?
  

These accurate, precision-cut, custom-made acrylic templates are long-lasting, terrific to use, and are made to order - any shape or size or colour YOU like. Or get multiples, in various sizes.
