lukebozek1 | 18-Apr-12 11:07 | This patern is gorgeous. How did you cut out the trim pieces? I usually end up with a horrible mess using surgical scissors. |
TJH | 18-Apr-12 11:34 | Thanks! I made a copy of the plans and then sketched the pattern there and blackened the areas. The next step is to lay the tissue over this and then pencil the pattern with a straight edge, then cut. I pasted it on with a glue stick (very tedious; I lost 2 pieces). Total time for these pieces was about 5 hours. |
TJH | 18-Apr-12 11:39 | BTW - I used a standard X-Acto and a metal straight edge to cut the tissue. |
lukebozek1 | 18-Apr-12 11:47 | thanks for the tip. I had good luck with the old double edged razor blades. The Exacto dragged and tore the tissue. |
