They are the perfect tool to help you precisely mark your sewing points.
First mark your 1/4" points and arrange your pieces: dark blue piece on the top,
light fabric piece in the middle, and a light blue piece on each side.
Position the dark blue piece over the light fabric piece right sides together.
Press your seam open.
Place the light blue piece over the unit right sides together.
Press your seam towards the light blue.
Position and sew second light blue piece as shown above.
Use your template A or ruler to trim.
