Islands and bridges

An island is a white area that is completely surrounded by black, like the middle of the letter O or the highlight in an eye. When you cut the stencil, that piece has nothing holding it and falls out. A bridge is a thin strip that connects it to the rest of the stencil, so the design stays intact. Fix all adds bridges for you.
