This PDF gives you a tiled version which you can print at home or an A0 copy which you can send to a copy shop.

Our sample was made out of the Organic Narrow Cotton Natural. 

We would suggest using a cotton canvas or denim, dry oilskin, and for a softer look linen would also work well. For more fabric suggestions click on the ‘Suitable Fabrics’ tab.
