SIZZLE SHOW AND TELL

[debra a.]

Here are my 2 May blocks. I'm doing 2 quilts (1 with Kim Diehl fabrics and the other with Jeanne Horton Fabrics). After last months block, these were a breeze

May block 5

[Suzanne C.]

Wondering if anyone else is getting this message when trying to print the paper piecing sheets.

"Unable to convert PostScript file".

Not sure how I was able to print it before!!!! Technology......

I print the instructions for every new block, and then I make photocopies of the pattern page onto vellum. I have a basic HP 110 printer. It works fine.

[Barbara B.]

Sorry, no such problem. Have you tried turning off both the printer and computer, then restarting them both? Sometimes that works to clear glitches.

[Barbara B.]

I have tried this. Fortunately, I had a printout that was the right size (1") and I used it to make my vellum sheets. We will just have to see what happens in the future.

Scrapquilter2, I googled your problem and it appears to be a Mac computer and HP type problem. It must be frustrating because it says it does it randomly, not all
the time. Most fixes say to print the file from Acrobat or Preview rather than just using File, Print on the computer. Then if that does not work open the Advanced menu in Acrobat print dialog and Select Print as Image. Sometimes that affects the quality of the print. Hope this helps. It looks like a lot of people do run into this problem at times.

HelenW, thanks so much for this information. If it happens again, I will certainly do these until something works.

[Sheila B.]

Love your blocks. They are so elegant and precise. Beautiful work.

[Kathleen H.]

May block!

[Kathleen H.]

I'm totally sick....

[Barbara B.]

Call it a design decision and move on. In the grand scheme of things it will be fine. I have a similar situation with one block.

Just think of it this way: it has character and it’s balanced. All on one side. Life is short. Take a breath and don’t sweat the small stuff

[Ann K.]

It took me a long time to see the problem, most people won’t notice. Perfection is overrated
