Prepare Your Pattern

Cutting Plastic Canvas

By: Tracy Lambert

If you are using a preprinted pattern, use a copier to enlarge to the correct size, or draw it out by counting squares on graph paper. It may also help to draw around your pattern so that your lines are darker.

If your design is composed of simple shapes, you should have no problem counting the mesh from your pattern. Just jot down the size on a little notepad.
