I think so as it's printed out patterns before and no problem and I haven't changed setting. My printer doesn't give you an option for that only a4 or a5

On most printers there should be a box to tick for "full size" or "scale" and a percentage where you can change it to 100

So - did everyone enjoy the Stitch Festival? It was intense & exhausting but also INCREDIBLE!! Loved meeting sewing friends, old and new, as well as browsing the stands and making a few little purchases. Also LOVED doing the catwalk show. Super fun! Bring on the next event!ย

Loved it even more than last year! I did enjoy the catwalk despite my nerves, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.ย 

Two days was great, hoping to stretch it to three next year ๐Ÿคž

This should be the motivation that I need to finally make the Nepheline blouse I've been planning since last autumn ๐Ÿ˜†

I instantly knew what I wanted to make with the latest fabric from the luxury box, an Emporia patterns Penelope dress. I've made this several times before so it's a quick make for me, even accounting for that frill! I wore this on my trip to the Stitch Festival in London; seersucker travels so well I didn't need to iron it, always a bonus!

My granddaughter saw the leather bestie bag I made and asked could I make her one. As any respectable 8yr old it had to be pink with flowers. I found this 3D effect little Johnny fabric so hopefully it fits the bill for herย

Hi I can't get my pdf to print out at the correct size. Tried changing sizes , even tried it on another printer still the same. Little box that you have to measure is coming up 1/2 more than it should be.

Any advice would be great ,ย 

ps it's a chalk and notch fringe dress.

thanks

Have you got your printer set to print at 100%?

Have you looked at the Sewing Patterns by Masin Amalfi blouse? That has a very similar vibe but a lower neckline. it's on my list for this month
