Now it's your turn. Measure a mark at the top and bottom center of your paper (4 ¼ inches) and connect it with a line using your ruler as a straight edge. Then make marks on both sides of the paper at 2 ¾, 5 ½, and 8 ¼ inches and connect them with a straight line.

We are going to start with a long oval shaped upper leg starting to the left of the vertical centerline and close to the horizontal centerline.

The oval will reach down to the next horizontal line and about ¼ of the way into the right grid. You will get used to these kinds of descriptions quickly.

Start where we said to the left of the center. At first it helps to put marks to get your shapes started.

The leg will come over to the right of the centerline too. Put a mark here.
