Want to choose your own colors? Here’s a fill-in-the-blank color chart!
I highly recommend using an Add-A Quarter-Ruler during paper piecing to minimize bulk AND to press seams open when piecing paper pieced sections together. You’ll find more instructions in the pattern document.

Hi Jen. I wanted to try the Rainbow Cascade. I Printed it and unclicked “fit to Page”. Now it cuts off about a 1/2 inch or more of the pattern on the right side of the page. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Oh dear, that’s not good! Have you tried downloading the pattern to your computer before printing? I have found that can help. Let me know and if not I’ll try to help you figure something out.
Hi Jen. I did download it to folder for Sewhooked. I downloaded from your site and Craftsy. I played with printer for about an hour today. Finally go a copy that is correct scale. Only tiny tip is missing but have room to draw it in.
Was getting worried. Now to write all the adjustments I made so I can duplicate it next time. In the mean time I think I will go make copies at a box store. LOL
Oh my goodness, what a pain! I’m so sorry you had to work so hard to get a correct copy! I would definitely make copies instead so you don’t have to go through that every time.
Thx. Going get copies after I try it. I printed 5 pages so will have one left to use at box store.
Cheers
