I wouldn't offer you these leaves paper template packs if I weren't hooked on them. The first time I tried them was to make this mini quilt that I gave away in a swap. I fell in love with the process.
Since I gave this little quilt away, eight months ago I decided I'll make my own orange peel quilt. Last night I started the hand stitching of the bias, and I'm so happy about how it's turning out. I'll take pictures as soon as I finish the whole thing.
It was not hard at all to cut all these paper leaves; on the other hand the minimum amount I could cut were 8000 leaves. So why not share the love for the leaves with you via etsy?!?! They're made of 90lb. paper; they're thicker that regular paper and thinner than card stock. These paper leave templates are 4" from end to end to be applique onto 3.5" fabric squares if you are planning a traditional orange peel quilt. You can also try different lay outs with them. Each pack has from 90 to 100 leaves.
I used all the leaves I needed so it's kind of a de-stash deal, that's why they're so inexpensive. It was still fun to pack them and photograph them for my etsy store.
