    Denis is right. In a perfect world you would scale everything down.

    I went for the easy fix when I said lose an inch on each parallelogram.

    Well, since you asked, I spent over 20 years doing nothing but being PAID to do web searches . . . so, I CHEAT! I am known to STEAL things off the internet. Plus, on the safe side, I was a math major in high school and excel there (rather I USED TO before I got OLD).
    Be warned. I am BORED.
    This could be dangerous.

    When you get cold just go stand in the corner.
    They are usually 90 degrees.

    Ever think about that? No? You only think about yourself??

    Sandy an excellent way to incorporate past skills into your current life...now I just need to figure out how to use being a Laboratory Technician, Production Administrator and having a Law degree into my quilting. I am sometimes methodical and I do keep things well organised, I can hear my DH chuckling over that one. OK well I can honestly say that knowing about intellectual property law is helpful in knowing just how far you can push the "STEALING" from the internet.

    Lynn, you're one up on me with the IPL.

    I've been doing all this cleaning, shelling things out and redistributing things in the kitchen and dining room and Al keeps telling me how I amaze him since I'm so organized. I figure if I was so organized I wouldn't be doing this exercise.

    Now, let's see if I can come up with some QUILTING functions that can use a Lab Tech, Prod Admin . . . and LAW DEGREE? Whhhhmmmm?

    Hi Everyone

    Thanks for offering to help. I was and still am horrible in math so if I had to mathematically figure this out for myself, I would would probably just look for another pattern. I hope I'm not breaking any copyright laws but I couldnt figure out how else to send Sandy the cutting instructions so here they are. I don't even know if this is going to work

    Thanks again guys
