Trim edges on borderline and have arrows touch to create a X
1. Stack pages together or alternatively repeat this step one at a time and remove the right and bot-
tom border. You will have excess pattern to the left and top of your paper as we didn’t trim this border.
This acts as a buffer in that if you remove too much or too little there is still excess pattern on these
sides.
2. Place page 1 over the top of page 2 covering the left border and lay down so that the arrows connect
to create an ‘X’.
3. Place a small tab of tape on each X and repeat untill all pages are taped together.
4. With the small tabs done and all pages connected go back in with long lengths of tape now that you
are happy with the patterns assembly.
Please note: The above pattern is not the exact pattern you will receive and just example imagery

side down so that the reverse of the pattern can be

your leather is the right piece.
