Join us on a TQS exclusive 12-month creative journey with Becky Goldsmith as we bring you "Sizzle," a stunning quilt designed especially for TQS.

Each month we will provide photos, detailed directions for a portion of the quilt, and full-size patterns. Becky has also created a selection of "how-to" videos to guide you along the way.

Let's use this Topic "Sizzle Show and Tell" as a place to show off your beautiful Sizzle Blocks. That way, you know where to come to see what everyone is doing.
The topics that apply to each month are a good place to ask questions or make suggestions for each block.
AND when you post your photos to Social Media, like Instagram, Facebook, etc., use either of these hash tags so everyone there will be able to find our wonderful work:

It took me a long time to see the problem, most people won’t notice. Perfection is overrated

Just think of it this way: it has character and it’s balanced. All on one side. Life is short. Take a breath and don’t sweat the small stuff

Call it a design decision and move on. In the grand scheme of things it will be fine. I have a similar situation with one block.

HelenW, thanks so much for this information. If it happens again, I will certainly do these until something works.

Scrapquilter2, I googled your problem and it appears to be a Mac computer and HP type problem. It must be frustrating because it says it does it randomly, not all
the time. Most fixes say to print the file from Acrobat or Preview rather than just using File, Print on the computer. Then if that does not work open the Advanced menu in Acrobat print dialog and Select Print as Image. Sometimes that affects the quality of the print. Hope this helps. It looks like a lot of people do run into this problem at times.

I have tried this. Fortunately, I had a printout that was the right size (1") and I used it to make my vellum sheets. We will just have to see what happens in the future.

Sorry, no such problem. Have you tried turning off both the printer and computer, then restarting them both? Sometimes that works to clear glitches.

I print the instructions for every new block, and then I make photocopies of the pattern page onto vellum. I have a basic HP 110 printer. It works fine.

Wondering if anyone else is getting this message when trying to print the paper piecing sheets.

"Unable to convert PostScript file".

Not sure how I was able to print it before!!!! Technology......
