I recommend you sew a few of the seams together before you do anything else..

To take a wireframe snapshot of your UV layout, do the following..
From inside the UV texture editor window, select all the UVs the goto the bottom of the first menu and select UV snapshot. Dont forget to select a filename, the output size (ie 512 x 512) and the format you want ( ie TGA or TIFF) Before you hit enter.

This will save the UV layout in a format that can be opened in photoshop for you to create the texture you require. As I said previously though, I would sew some of your seams together first though, as It will make it a lot easier for you to join up the textures..

You should search the net for tutorials on UV layout or purchase the one here (in 3 parts)

That will help you
