Is the template full size?

Yes. Each sheet shows the outline at full size, so print it at 100 percent with no scaling to keep the measurements.

Which template is simplest to cut out?

The garland, six small kites each with a punched hole at the top and a short tail.

What is the difference between the three styles?

Cut lines is black outlines only for tracing; the coloured sheet prints each piece in flat saffron, magenta or green; the colour-in sheet leaves the pieces white with a sun, stripes and stars to colour.

Can I change the kite?

Yes. Type a different kite, such as tissue paper or a star kite, and the template is made to that request.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
