Jean, I am so glad to know that you can finally take part in the exchange. The only good thing to come out of your problems was that you saved some money. For more fabric perhaps ;-)

I used the pattern off the website and it printed up just perfect from the site. I knew from the tutorial that "no scaling" was the correct option. I just happen to have Newspaper paper for paper piecing from EQuilt Co. I liked this smaller length pattern better than a longer pattern I had used for some.

Thanks so much for the website!

All I know is that you need to set your printer's scaling function to "none" or "no scaling" or something similar on your particular printer.

I found that I have better luck when I download the file to my computer's hard drive and print it from there instead of right off the web site.

Hope that helps.

You end up with HST papers with your address printed on them. Took about 15 minutes total.

What a cool idea!

I tried to see if I could use the Adobe Acrobat Reader's Version 10.0 Sticky Notes tool option to add and print names & addresses onto the triangle papers, to avoid having to feed the papers through the printer twice. Unfortunately, I could only get a summary of the Sticky Notes comments printed onto a separate Summary of Comments page. If anyone out there knows whether what I was trying to do is possible, please let us all know. I'm pretty certain that Adobe Writer has a way to accomplish this, but most of us do not have that software.

Today's Daily Blog has a link to a new tutorial for printing foundations with no scaling!

Pam7040 Been there done that I keep getting sent back here Does anyone know how wide to cut the strips I could be doing that Coudn't I? Do all of you have your triangle papers? jean082

For Edyta's foundation papers, cut your fabric 6-1/2" x about 21" (half of the width of fabric off the bolt). All four edges will be trimmed after the bias seams are stitched.
Watch her video (Episode 802) to see exactly how she does it.
