So my thinking is that if I add 25% to the measurement of each piece for a block, then it should sew out to 12 inch instead of 9 inch.
Is this right??
Hubby says 33.3 % He is a printer guy. He heard me read this outloud... now looking over my shoulder...lol
BUT he says make sure you measure after you print because you are going from an odd measurement to an even measurement. Don't forget your 1/4 in seam allowances!!
I hate math too. He's my "go to" guy for math.. :lol:
Faith :XD:
Actually, you would set the copier for 133% - if you are copying templates or pieces with seam allowances - redraw 1/4 inch seam allowances
