Wow! I have a roll of the same thing and it is not nearly as nice as this one. The hornback ridges on yours look very much closer to the real deal! Sweet!

I likes it i spent about an hour at tandy Sat. just digging through the carts and bins found some good pieces

I really like what you've done. But I noticed that the edges/corners are just a smidge off. If you did nothing more than put a t-square on it and true up the sides it would out these over the top and even out the stitch line also.

It would be a 1000% improvement just doing that.(If the foto makes it look off then I take it all back!)

Thanks Pete

after looking at them a little better you are right they are a little off

i just need to keep my stitches straighter

Thanks for your comment take all the help i can get

Are you using dividers? If so then true up the edges and corners and use one. The stitching looks good and pretty straight to me. It's the edges that are suspect.

Get the edges perfectly straight and run your divider along it and "voila' " a perfect line to put your stitches.

again= nice work!
