    Premature Worry!

    Thanks to all who responded with possible print issue solutions. I have decided to reduce the pattern by 60% so it is no longer an issue. But I have seen that black bias tape is included in the kit. I am working from my stash so will have to purchase it separately. Where? But will it be proportionally ok to use with the reduced design? I assume it is used for the trees.

    The bias tape makes the trees and two of the skyscrapers. 1/4” wide so not real big.

      It's also used as shadows on some of the buildings.

        No, the bias tape is not shadows on the buildings.

          Fettjunk, You said you are reducing the pattern by 60%, that would make it 40%. That is really small. Did you mean you are going to make it at 60%?

          If you google 1/4 inch black bias tape you will get a bunch of places online. Also, another option besides making your own, is to go to a big box store like JoAnns
          and buy the bias tape in almost any color you want then cut strips of fusible and iron it to the back side. Just another idea. HelenW
