Probably most of the houses on Quilter's Cache are paper pieced.

No they won't all be paper pieced...I have March and it is NOT paper pieced.

This from PatriceJ:

EUREKA!!!

As I expected, the templates do not all print at 100% of the size they're supposed to be. the problem is with Template A.

if you are using Internet Explorer, do the following:

From the Menu select "File"
Select "Print Preview"

You should see something similar to the menu options in the picture below.

Change "Shrink to Fit" to 100%
Change the page orientation to Landscape

the whole image should now appear in the print preview AND it will print in the proper size.




I Quilt, I Nap, I Quilt Some More ... Aaaaah, The Good Life

Sorry but I have tried and they never come out for me. They are tedious and I hate ripping paper off. Then I am never pleased with the end result.

A suggestion for those that may be a little intimidated....Get out your crayons and color the pieces so you know which fabrics go where....

Love the house though!!!

I had to enlarge the first page by 120%, the second page by 150%, and the 3rd page by 140% in order to have them all scaled to one inch on the little square.

It's happening again. I can't get the templates to all print out the same size. Can someone tell me how to graft this out on paper. With each template being a different size how do make it match on paper. Tried it with the church block and it was a failed project. I really want to do this BOM but might not be able to. TIA!

I don't know why everyone is having a problem. Mine seem to have printed ok. Am I living in a dream world?
