Add 60 new shapes to Kaleidoscope Kreator™
2.0, more than doubling the choices available in the base product.
Polygons are basic building blocks for creating more intricate patterns and designs. This add-on template pack includes templates for 5-, 6-, 8-, 10-, 12- and 16-sided polygons. Each template can be used in either kaleidoscope or pinwheel mode, and there are solid and frame styles for each shape. Quilters will especially love having these additional shapes to choose from when creating traditional quilt patterns, but this template pack is perfect for anyone who wants to create stunning geometric designs.
