Sue Spargo Creative Stitching Tools - Circles Easy
Sue Spargo's Creative Stitching Tools are specially designed for lovers of creative embroidery, wool appliqué, Sashiko, and embellishment stitching. These sturdy templates make it easy to trace perfect shapes onto wool, cotton, linen, and other fabrics.

Each template features convenient markings to help you plan and evenly space your stitches around the shape. This makes it easy to create neat, symmetrical decorative stitching every time. Perfect for embroidery, wool appliqué, embellishments, and Sashiko.

What is the difference between the Sue Spargo Spoke Easy and Circle Templates?
Although they may look similar at first glance, the Spoke Easy and Circle Templates by Sue Spargo are designed for different purposes.
Circle Templates
The Circle Templates are primarily used for drawing, tracing, and marking circles.
- Includes 9 different circle sizes
- Perfect for drawing accurate circles on wool, cotton, linen, and other fabrics
- Features evenly spaced markings around each circle to help plan decorative stitches
- Ideal for appliqué, embroidery, Sashiko, and folded hexagons
- Often used as the foundation for flowers, circles, and decorative motifs
In short: use the Circle Templates to create the circle itself.
The Spoke Easy is designed to create evenly spaced radial lines ("spokes") from a central point.
- Helps divide a circle into equal sections
- Ideal for flowers, mandalas, stars, sunbursts, and wheel-like designs
- Ensures stitches and embellishments are placed symmetrically
- Frequently used in creative embroidery and Sue Spargo-style embellishment projects
In short: use the Spoke Easy to divide a circle into evenly spaced segments.
Simply put
- Circle Templates → draw the circle.
- Spoke Easy → divide the circle into equal sections.
Many Sue Spargo stitchers use both tools together: first drawing a circle with the Circle Templates, then using the Spoke Easy to mark the spokes so that stitches, beads, and embellishments can be placed evenly and symmetrically around the center.
