You know everyone that you can do a 1" border, then a 4" border to equal you 5"....sometimes that makes it easier. :D
Thanks Patti. It was getting late last night and I think my brain was getting a little numb. Looking at the pattern this morning, it took all of about 90 seconds to have the correct dimensions on paper. :roll: Always better to do math with refreshed brain cells, yes?
