this block is frustrating me. It's so "painful" trying to figure out the correct measurements for printing. Everything except the porch roof came out right. What the heck??

What a beautiful and "homey" home. I love old houses and want to take a trip just to view and photo houses someday

DH actually made a rope swing on the oak tree in my front yard for grandkids. I was planning to make one for my block but you quickly changed my mind. LOL Front of my house is very similar to block. Excuse the mess -we're on year 4 of rebuilding DH's childhood home with lots of outside painting left to complete.

OH Mommamac, I really love your home it is beautiful

If you go a few pgs back they solve the problem...
Go to Print preview...change to landscape then fit to size or 100 percent...that should get you the right size...If you lose a few pieces like I did steps and roof I found I had to leave it on portrait not landscape and then fit to size or 100 percent is the only thing you change and you get the right size for the missing pieces and get those pieces but will lose some of the other pieces...so you have to just keep adjusting until you have all your pieces. good luck
