RUTH---here is how to adjust the sizing
when your pdf page opens there is a box that says page scaling. Use the drop down and select none. That should do it for you

Make sure when you print you also select the none on your printer page settings too.

Sorry I did not get the block posted yesterday... had a poison scare with baby Kyle... he thought it would be a good idea to try rubber cement... he is fine but really scared his momma! Had to call poison control and watch for vomiting and respiratory problems! Needless to say I did not get much sleep last night... had the baby monitor up to my ear the whole night! I don't believe he ingested much but rather just tasted it and spit it out! Thank goodness! Anywho I posted the next block! I am going to try and catch up on mine this weekend... in between packing! LOL! Did everyone get the printer options figured out?

Hugs!

Alina, how scarey about baby Kyle! I'm so glad he is okay.

The new block looks simple but I've got to tackle that paperpiecing first. Fons & Porter did a pp show this morning with Jodie Davis. She made it look easy! I'm sure I'm creating a monster in my mind & should just go try it. It can't possibly be as hard as I'm imagining!

Alina, I can SO relate to what you went through! My middle daughter was out of one thing, into three! I don't even know the times I had to call Poison Control with her--- and I was always very careful about keeping things put away, but she somehow would FIND a way to get into stuff. I had to give her syrup of ipecac one time, and after that, her curiosity abated quite a bit! That's bad stuff!

I'm so glad to hear that Kyle is okay! :-)

Very pretty Carol...Your blocks have all been beautiful! I am so behind! Grrrr... I am glad some of you are getting there's done... it is nice to see it coming together! With this crazy unplanned move I probably won't be working on mine much but I will continue to post the blocks every Friday! Please keep working on them and I will catch up as soon as possible!

Bamagirl... that totally sounds like Kyle... I am totally careful with everything he just is too quick... little stinker butt!

Hugs!

First, everyones blocks are beautiful, maybe I'll make some of these one day, I am collecting the patterns.
Alina, I think all of us have or had a Kyle. Mine was Matthew (he is now 31.) What you have to look forward to is my little Princess Dawn (Matthews DD) is just like him and gets into everything and never misses a trick. It's called PAY BACK.......LOL so much fun. So it does get better.

Good luck with your move, it was so good to get to meet you.

My hat is off to anyone who does paper piecing on a regular basis! Mine is done but boy was it a learning adventure! Not fun tearing out that paper! I'm thinking that buying the pp paper might be a good idea! I'm glad I tried this and that it is done.
