Well I wasn't sure so I pulled your picture and I am glad I did. You should have been able to take it right into scal and run a trace then you would have had it. But when I took it into scal it got all whopper jawed. So I took it into Inkscape and traced it for you. Here is the link to the tutorial on how to do a trace in scal

when i looked at the svg in SCAL, it had two layers, one on top of the other. The longer part is way longer than a 12 inch mat. I guess you will have to cut it on a 24 inch mat?

I fixed it thank you Linda, Thank you. But I left it at the size it was. I figured they could resize it to what ever they wanted too before or if they ungroup it
