I made "maps" with paper, as someone else here suggested before. I found it very difficult to even locate the holes in this paper pattern. I would hate to try to find the hole location in the finished fabric without these maps.Dan HelsperPuryear, TN.Took the Aeronca up yesterday. Was beautiful and warm here. Flew down to Carrol County Airport and back. I need to get out more and explore this place. ________________________________________________________________________________
