I don't see why you could not make a template (stiff paper/paper board) to accomplish the same results.
Hmmm.....that's a good idea, either way. Would certainly help with consistency for sure. Now if I could just get super speedy with my sewing! I have to do this stitch around houses and two shrubs that flank each house in about 24-30 squares.
