1. Download & Open
After purchase, download your files and open them using a PDF reader (we recommend Adobe Acrobat Reader). Avoid printing directly from a web browser to ensure accuracy.
2. Choose Your Format
- Home Printing: Use the Letter/A4 file. Set your printer to 100% Scale or "Actual Size." Always print the first page first and measure the test square to verify sizing.
- Large Format: Use the A0 file to have the pattern printed at a local copy shop on a single large sheet—no taping required!
- Projecting: Use the Projector file if you prefer to beam the pattern pieces directly onto your fabric for a paperless experience.
3. Assemble (Home Printing Only)
Layout the pages according to the grid guide, overlap the edges as indicated, and secure them with tape or glue to create your full-sized pattern sheet.
4. Cut Your Size
Locate your size using our measurement chart, cut out your paper pieces (or cut directly if using a projector), and you're ready to sew!
