  2. Hi Sandra

    Don't know if you are aware that the "printer friendly" only open the pillow pattern in pdf?? Just thought I would let you know just in case.

  3. Pam, you CAN make a pdf using print friendly, but it is not ONLY a pdf. When you click on print friendly, it comes up with a printable page of the post. If you want a pdf of the page, you have to click on "pdf". Then it generates a pdf file which you can save if you wish.

  4. I like that the "Printer Friendly" also lets me print directly to my printer. Another thing it does is lets you adjust the font size up to extra large so a pattern is easier to see.
    A numer of sites are using this now and I like it.
    Sandie, I have been using your patterns for many year now and I like them. There is one pattern though that I had printed years ago and can no longer find. it is your "scrap Strip Afghan". This is the very reason I now save all of the patterns I find to my computer. Then they don't get lost.
