Yes, you have to make very careful measurements of the correct hole positions and mark them with a prick punch.

  I tried that, but didn't have much luck with it. I could never get the holes lined

  However, once I have the felt glued down, taking the holes out in exactly the 
  correct places is easy with a pencil-iron.
