The Laser-Cutter has been running hot lately, busily cutting lots of 3mm Acrylic templates for orders and samples.  It's really satisfying to be able to help quilting, patchwork and sewing enthusiasts to increase their enjoyment from their favourite activity. 

We have received 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 last year, with great results, and it's terrific to receive repeat orders from satisfied customers.  
6 Translucent colours: Orange, Yellow, Fluro Pink, Fluro Green, Pale Blue & Clear

**PLEASE NOTE:  Templates are for your personal use,  from a pattern which you already have.   For example, you may have bought it, or it's from a magazine or book,  or you have obtained it as a free PDF.  I do not sell any patterns (apart from those I've designed myself).  If in doubt, please contact me with your query, and I'll be glad to help  :)  

Please Also Note:  Templates will be cut based upon the corresponding pattern provided.  Whilst every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of the templates, in the conversion process small errors can occur.  If you are not satisfied with any of the pieces, please let us know and we will happily provide a replacement piece, free of charge.
