First outline the design onto the waste canvas, I used an ordinary ball point pen, and 14 hpi canvas.

This hand is taken from a book of Donna Kooler cross stitch designs.

Once you have drawn the outline onto the waste canvas, tack the canvas over the area on your cq block where you want to stitch the blackwork.
