@Lowena
I have only just got back to this thread.
Basically it is applique, I just used iron-on interfacing as the glue, you could easily use 505 on to a plain fabric for the back.

This was mostly just straight lines so not difficult. Would be a good starting project.

I folded the fabric on to the templates as you would, I used the tin foil method pressing firmly as I go. Then take out the template and press again
. ???????
Isnt that how you put highlights in your hair .. with tinfoil???
Lost me!!!

Haha
@Iminei
Laying the fabric and template on top of a larger piece of foil, it is easy to use the foil to lift up the fabric to turn the fold, and when pressed give a sharper crease

Without giving too much away Iminei, do you know if my MR has actually been sent yet and when?

This was a new technique for me, I found a way to do the hexies without any hand sewing
Do tell how Lilian .. or maybe you'd like to compose next months Guest BOM ??????
