Got a question

[newmommy_2010]

I am new to using my cricut and I am trying to figure all this out. When I am making layers to glue together and the main piece is 3 inches what size would I make the layers then?!
Hope this makes sense.

If you are making paper piecings you need to cut each piece at the same size you cut the base. So if you cut your base piece at 3 inches you need to cut all the rest of the pieces with the size set at 3 inches. Hope that makes sense.

Yep, once you've determined what size you want the piece to be, DON'T change the size dial until you have cut out all the pieces you need. Also, make sure Real Dial Size is turned OFF.

Yup, that is the key, don't change the sizes and turn the real dial size off.

Play around, don't be shy.

Exactly... don't use REAL DIAL SIZE... I've ruined many a paper piecing by using real dial..
