    to all who are having problems with the pattern sizes, Chek the square with a ruler,,,then scale the zoom % until you get to the exact 1" match. The printed page should be correct. Good Luck, Jean OK

    That was exactly the problem with mine....when I hit print, it said something about shrinking to size. When I changed the page scaling to 'none,' it was perfect! Thanks!

    Ronda, don't worry. I made it work, changed some printer settings and it's 6" now. Non scaling was on but I used 'page settings from PDF file' as well and now it's working just fine.
    I love cats and always wanted to make one (or more) but never did so now I'm finally making cats Thanks for this lovely block!
