    How can I make a downloadable pattern?

    I have been trying to figure out how I can make a downloadable landscape quilt pattern that everyone can download and print on their home printer and tape together. I wrote a blog about this problem http://blog.bjfabricartist.com/2012/...g-problem.aspx and I suspect some of you must have solved this problem already. If you have any ideas let me know. I would really like to do this without having to buy yet another piece of expensive software so I thought I would come to my favorite place for quilt-related problem solving (and even sometimes other types of problems). Help!

    Hi Betty Jo.
    I tried to make a tiled photo in Corel Essentials that is within Designer Plus Version 6. Then I sent it to a printer called CutePDF Writer which is a free program, that acts as a printer on your system. It seems to work so I suggest that you try this. I had 4 tiles and they are included in one pdf file.
