"Hi! This is Vincent Laporta for Expert Village. Now I'm going to be using the hand tool and I'm just going to poke. You make the dots about 1/8 inch apart. You don’t' space them too much because when you take off the pattern you might lose them, but I'll show you all the techniques of how you can find them, which makes it a lot easier too.

Save your pattern so you can use it as a reference. You have to try to take it off here easy. You want to be able to reference to that as you go along."
