Creating Irregular Garden Borders PDF Print E-mail
There are no translations available.

Before deciding on plans for your garden, it's useful to be able to draw the boundaries of the garden so that you can see how much space it available. In this entry, I'll describe a method which works for totally irregular garden shapes.

  1. Edit the garden plot size to a rectangle which is somewhat larger than the garden.

  2. Measure the size of the garden along its longest point. Create a dimension line the size of the measured line.

  3. At regular intervals, measure in both directions away from the original line. It's best to use the intervals of the grid on GardenSketch so that you can use the grid to align the measurements at right angles.

  4. Click the paint tool and the freehand shape tool, and draw a line around the outside of the dimension lines. If you need to draw the shape in multiple lines, then you can use the "Combine" menu item to combine the lines into one shape.

  5. Drag the shape to its final location and erase the dimension lines.
