My advice is to take a sheet of 16 ga. copper , big enough to fit ALL of the patterns you like best, fully cut and background and THEN you pick out your fave. Make sure to leave enough space in between each pattern,so as not to inadvertently mix the pattern details mentally.
Cutting has a different visual impact from drawing, plus later you will have a pull ready pattern source Bottom line, PLEASE YOURSELF FIRST!
I, myself, am my own WORST CRITIC! :beatup:
