Title: greyhound dog patterns
Post by: jeff44 on June 18, 2013, 11:06:49 am

I have started doing some dog picture patterns and my wife loves greyhounds, I have not been able to find just the right one for her.  Any one have any suggestions or patterns to share? Thanks in advance.

This is a heck of an animal!
You might use the original photo to add some stain or color to your cutting (maybe the saddle?)

6/18/13 1:15PM EDT - changed pattern to add a few bridges.

Please post a photo if you cut it.

When I printed the pattern I only got the back half of the dog.  How do I get the whole picture?

try this one. The original photo was high resolution and the print resolution was set to 72 pix/inch, so it was trying to print 26" wide. I changed the res to 200 pix/inch, so it should now be 9.55" wide.

Remember to set your printer to Landscape.

The 2nd version is again 72 pix/in, but the image size is reduced to 10". Either one should print on a Windows computer in Landscape mode.

Let me know if you still have trouble.

The bottom one worked great.  Thanks again for your efforts.
