Lay Out Pieces

The fun part! Lay the pieces out in the final pattern to get ready for feeding the rope, this will make it much easier to put together

Cut out 14 pieces of 1/8 in rope 6 in longer than the height of the map. This gives us room to tie a not in-between each tile as we string them on. Tie knots at the top and bottom to secure. Repeat 14 times!
