Does anyone know where I van find some patterns of canoes?

[oyvindbl]

I am planning to make a thwart bag and a bowbag for my cedarstrip canoe, but I just can't find any patterns suitable for use on these. I would like to have a pattern with traditional wilderness canoe paddling, but the only ones I can find is one old doodle page from The leatherfactory, and one old craftaid with an indian in a canoe. None of these are close to what I am looking for.

I have found some pictures on the net, but I am not so good at Photoshop, so I don't think I am able to make the patter on my computer.

If anyone has a tip on how to do it, then maybe I can be able to make it (and that would be great!!)

Hey Oyvind!

If you go to Google Images and type in what you are looking for, you can find all kinds of images to choose from.

I did a search for a few canoe pictures by typing the following: "canoe coloring book" and "canoe illustration" (remove the quotes) and came up with several that could meet your criteria... If you get a little creative in your searches, you can find exactly the type of images you are looking for.

I hope this helps! If I can be of any more assistance, just let me know...

Thanks!!

That really helped.

Now I will just have to get back home next friday and take the measures of the canoe to start designing the bags, and then order some leather.
