MEASUREMENT CHART

Printing Instructions:

This printable PDF pattern is assembled BY OVERLAPPING THE PAGES 1/2 INCH.  That will make it easier to assemble and avoid further fitting issues.The pattern comes in letter size paper.To print this pattern, go the PDF document. Select  FILE — PRINT.
This will be the layout of your pattern:It will print 32 pages. Wait until all the pages are printed before taking them from the printer; it will make it easier to assemble.When finish printing, place the pages as the layout below. Then use tape to put them together. Now cut the pieces.I have purposely erased the numbers from those pages that do not have any lines.  In that case, you will be able to save some pages for your future projects.
