    Thanks for choosing 'God's House' first. What a great way to start off the year and this BOM. Planning on sewing mine at a retreat next weekend. Is it Feb. 1 yet?

    I did it! I did it! I copied and pasted it into my Publisher program and resized the test block to 1 inch! I am so proud of myself. I just learned something new!!...and I bet there will be something new with every block :o)

    What a great one to start off. Will be my first attempt at paper piecing and at BOM but first I need to figure out how to get all the test sqaures the same size. Each one printed a different size.

    How did you fiddle with the sizing. I have tried printing it in Foxfire and IE, also saved it as a jpg and brought it into Paint Shop pro, then tried it in Word and I can't seem to get the test block to equal one inch.
    Help anyone???? Thanks so much

    I had two that printed ok and one that didn't. I think I printed from a different area. Anyway, I went to print setup and changed my margins and it was set to fit paper and I unclicked that. Try that. It worked for me.
