This allows you to toally control the shape of your circles and you can butt the different colours right up to the edge of each other. If you want to(if you are precise!) you can then cover the decorative layer with a net and give it a quick rub of soap before continuing with laying out the background colour. This makes a more definite shape as well as helping with clarity of colour and you can adjust the edges with tooth picks or your fingerbefore covering with the batts!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3398142838267674947.post-27205601692323691222010-12-08T20:46:07.950-05:002010-12-08T20:46:07.950-05:00Thanks, Nicola!
