Very Very nice!! Great choice of fabrics, the movement and directions are perfect!! I used to PP quite a bit also years ago, I used typing paper and forgot I had Carol Doaks paper, so much easier to use! But too I love PP, can be addicting!

How to change the size of your print-out.
1. Click on Template A
2. Left click on File
3. Go to Print Preview
4. On that ribbon, go to the box that says "Shrink to fit"
5. Click on the down arrow
6. Scroll to Custom, click
7. Type in 111% as your starting point, hit Enter
8. Place your cursor on the Printer on the same ribbon
9. Left click
10. Printer box comes up. Be sure you only print one for now. Measure the “Test 1inch” box and make sure it measures 1 inch.
If it doesn’t………keep adjusting the 111% up or down till you get the right size.
We are finding only the Template A needs to be adjusted and printed in “Landscape” mode. However, check the test box on each as you print them.

Oh well... on to the next.

When I get my windows the same size, I will try to post a picture.
BTW, ALL of the church blocks are beautiful. For the ones who have never done PP before, you did a great job. Now, to try to correct my mistakes. Happy sewing, Anne

OK Here's my second try to get a picture of my church posted. I'm planning on doing more embellishing once the quilt is completed, because it's too hard to quilt around any 3D items when I put the quilt on my LA Thanks Sulabug for such a great choice of a block.
Lauren's country church..
