Sine Wave Stiching Template

Yet another user of dividers...

I just use anything circular to hand, which is the required size & draw around it.

It's easier to cheat- I use a curved stitch marking iron, I have 3 -8,10 and 12 to the inch and just use the one I fancy for the belt I am doing.

[GrampaJoel]

I just take a piece of typing or construction, or card stock paper and fold it in half.

Then I just cut a wavy piece away from the fold. Then I open the fold and there you go.

A wavy pattern to stitch.

I adjust as needed.

Or use your dividers to mark a light centerline and outside borders. Then use an object such as a paper plate to mark the outside radius of the plate over a chosen distance such as 8" to 10", just make sure it divided evenly over the length of the belt. lightly mark that radius to the ends of the belt and stitch. no need to reinvent the wheel or make it more comlicated.

I used to use the paper plate and it works great. However Joyce at Blackriver laser has the templates for hand stitching and for machine stitching in I thhink three deifferent belt sizes. Lay the template on the belt use a scratch awl to mark the stitch holes for hand sewing and get to stitching.

I agree that Joyce has the easiest option and if I were to be using the pattern on a regular basis I would purchase the template.
