What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Wow, that wheel was a trial. I had to rip and resew twice to get it flat. Then I still had to cut the wheel down to fit the square and cut a larger circle for the center. So make sure your template is accurate and you sew precise 1/4" seams. The plate was a snap for some reason.

Thank you. They're definitely not perfect close up, but I'm glad the illusion is there! :D

I don't think I've ever met anyone who wasn't fond of blue. LOL! It's not my favorite color, but it's up there and I've always thought blue and white are a great combo. Maybe because my dad was in the Navy. :) Thanks for your lovely comment.
