    printed paper.

    Mine printed at the right size referencing the 1" square.
    However, it appears the small house 1 is 1/4" taller (11") than small house 2 (10 3/4"). At this point I am not going to trim the top. I am sure it will make a difference when I start on the next ring.

    All of the Small Houses are the same size. Check the 1" scale again and check the seam allowance where you joined the bottom part to the top.

    I hesitate to say this: Including seam allowances and measuring through the center of the house, they should measure 10.75"--or very close to it. If all of your houses are the same height, close to 10.75", they are fine. Don't agonize over measurements off by an 1/8" or less. More than that, find out where the problem is and try to fix it.

      I've just printed out my house patterns but there are no identifying numbers or letters printed on the house. Should they show up on the houses or do I have to write them in?

        There are letters--identifying each piece--and numbers--identifying each seam--on the patterns. I am talking about pages 9 and 10 of Month 1.

        Do you see them when you view the pattern and they don't appear on your printed copy? I cannot imagine why that would be the case.

        No one else has mentioned this issue. Can you post a photo of what you printed?

          BeverlyN This is what small house one should look like. It has letters and numbers. HelenW
