The Rounds© series of templates was developed gradually. This one is probably the easiest of
the patterns to piece. The templates were designed to
be used together, to mix and match for exciting design opportunities.
It includes 3 sets:
1. Rounds©
2. Rounds Plus© and
3. Rounds and Then Some©.
All result in 6-inch finished blocks. |
 |
|
|
|
Rounds© is the basic set. It includes 2 pieces. A pie-shaped piece and a corner piece form a simple quarter-circle BASIC block.
 Templates for
BASIC 6-inch block
A-6: Pie-shaped (6-inch)(convex curve)
B-6: Corner (6-inch) (concave curve)

Rounds Plus© is the next set. It includes 4 pieces. The larger pieces “split” the two Rounds pieces in half to add variety and more fabrics to the design. The two small pieces make a 3-inch basic block. Four of these equal a 6-inch block and they may be arranged in many different ways. These blocks add variety as well. They may also be used on their own.
 Templates for SPLIT 6-inch block
A/S-6: Split Pie-Shaped (6-inch) (convex curve)
B/s-6: Split Corner (6-inch) (concave curve)
 Templates for BASIC 3-inch block

Rounds and Then Some© is the final set. It includes 4 pieces. There are two narrow bands, a wide band and a pie-shaped piece that is smaller than the one in Rounds© and larger than the one in Rounds Plus©. To complete these blocks, the corner piece from Rounds© and the small quarter-circle piece from Rounds Plus© are needed.
Paper patterns are included for these two shapes.
