Title: Laurel & Hardy "Flying Deuces"
Post by: jrpeteo on January 05, 2013, 06:55:43 pm

Been Goofing around with pattern making, by reading posts and asking questions of folks on this forum. Watching the work of Mahendra and Don R has inspired me. I used a combination of Gimp and Inkscape. How'd I do?

Pete, Nice pattern keep it up! I would give it one more wash in Inkscape and enlarge your bridges thru the steering wheel.You should cut it and see how it looks.
Good job.

Looks excellent to me, but I can see what Don means about the bridges on the steering wheel.

Thanks for the comments guys. Once I actually printed it out and started looking at, I can see the issues with the steering wheels and a couple other areas.
