- Hello Cheryl I would add 3 or 4 inches to the pattern size to allow for framing so if 3 inches 21.4 would become 27.4 and 14.2 would be 20.2 so you will need to use your larger piece of fabric. Hope this helps you. Amanda x -- Amanda W from UK -- Apr 07
- Good advice Amanda, it might work on the smaller fabric but it's risky. You don't want to find out after months of stitching that your fabric is too small for framing or you started slightly off and ran out of fabric. -- Marv from Crosstitch.com -- Apr 07

About Copyrights:
Copyright patterns may not be copied and given to someone else. It's against the law and it's dishonest. On the Internet, one copy can quickly turn into one million which basically takes away the need for people to buy the patterns, which puts the designers out of business. You can give away, trade, or sell the original leaflet though.
In the case of Crosstitch.com patterns, which are by subscription, all patterns are for the members personal use only and may not be given away or re-distibuted in any manner.
