    I tried logging onto the following web site to down load the pdf instructions. The web site was not found. Is there another web site I can log onto to download the pdf instructions? http://mytorium.×10hosting.com/tut1.pdf Thank You,

    Thanks so much for taking the time to post this. I followed your tute & successfully enlarged an old free vest pattern, from Hancock’s Fabrics, to scale. The only problem I had was that the “Gimp Layers Window” didn’t open on the right, as per step 18.

    If you have a photo program with a poster printing option – like Ulead – you can open your newly scaled pattern in the program & select the “Poster” option for printing. The pattern is then immediately divided into nice even segments, with borders to glue the pattern sheets together.
