Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Andrew M. ★★★★★

Finally — a perfect size for my fussy-cut hexagon rosettes. The paper holds its shape beautifully through basting and the 4-1/2" side lets me nestle pieces tightly together.

Mia ★★★★★

The precision-cut edges make each piece identical, which is a lifesaver when I’m basting fabric for my hexie quilt. They hold their shape firmly through multiple stitches, and I didn’t have to trim a single one.

Richard ★★★★★

The 60-degree angles on these trapezoids make nested layouts line up perfectly—my grandmother’s Dresden plate pattern finally came together without any gaps. They’re sturdy enough to baste through repeatedly without the paper warping.
