The pattern does contain paper templates, but I would consider using a circle cutting ruler if you have one. If you wish to buy one, I would recommend Creative Grids Circle Savvy Ruler or Color Girl Quilts Classic Cures ruler. Check your ruler stash! This is a good way of keeping your cuts consistent.
