I wasted a couple of hours trying to design a template for the plain centre circle, but in the end, it didn't seem totally accurate when I checked it with the other templates.
I went back to my original plan: use a finished ring as a template.

The interesting thing ( or challenge, if you like) is that this is not a perfect circle, but has 4 straight sections where they are stitched to the squares.
In the end, it wasn't a problem.
I probably have a couple of hours to go and the 9 rings will be together and squared off ready for the appliqué!
And speaking of unpicking: don't take your frustration out on the fabric or the stitching, but unpick gently, tremove the bits of thread and press fabric to bring it back to its original crispness.
