Sampler stretching

Underneath the sampler I have a piece of checkered cloth that I'm lining up the outside edges of the pattern to.  I spritzed it with water, lined up all the edges and pinned it.  Thankfully it wasn't too out of whack as I stitched it on a frame.  I'll spritz it again this evening, repin and stretch it out and it should be nice and straight.
