Yes, I did that as well Fajita but it still came out small. The enlargement I did was a tad over 7 inches so I'll have to settle for that. Thanks girls.  :D

Hi girls,

Yes my pattern came out at just about 8" and if you remember I extended past the paper (as the pattern barely fit on an A4 sheet) and then added the side, top and bottom panels.

Getting templates to print at the right size inside a tutorial is tricky and then you have to hope the person who prints it remembers to set No scaling or cancel Fit to page in their printers settings.

I have added some extra destructions to the stage of the tut ... thanks for making me aware of the problem.

Ta Dah!!
I managed to get it to something like 8 inches finally and then added some quite large borders to make it a useful size. Depending what I end up doing with it these can be trimmed down if necessary.

I have very little darkside-friendly stash at present but I wanted to have a go at this...
... so I caved in and bought a very small and somewhat random selection of charm squares from an ebay seller, which arrived today! Hurrah!!
I shall post a pic as and when. I'm hoping to have a few hours spare one night this week for this. Thanks for putting together the tut Imi  :)
