Hi,
You will most definately need more copper for 2007. The directions are in the prior year notes. I would suggest you call them with a credit card and have the cut copper land on your doorstep, rather than drive all the way to Hayward. I panicked and spent way too much on some copper at a local art store,and had to cut it myself. You can just get rid of the squares in the box that are smaller than the rest or let Moms use them. Keep the squares 6 by 6 inches so the paper patterns fit.
The kids liked the Wolf, Bear, and Indian the most. I tried to keep the girls away from the flowers because there was so little time and so much detail.
We practiced a few times before the big day and I cut my finger on the copper, so I taped around the edges just to be safe.
You should make some copies of the favorite patterns, about 20 each of the favorites
Good luck. Have fun.
