PDF SEWING PATTERN

Please note: This pattern contains three files. A PROJECTOR file, a COPY SHOP file and a  PRINT AT HOME file. If using Adobe Acrobat, you can choose to display or print only the size you need by selecting the corresponding layer.

The PROJECTOR file can be opened using Adobe Acrobat. You can deselect the sizes you do not need and display only your desired size. Ensure your projector is calibrated and measure the check square to ensure the pattern is at the correct scale. If using dark-coloured fabric, change the colour setting of the projector file so the pattern and text are easier to see. 

The COPY SHOP file can be printed on a large piece of paper at any printing store. This specific file fits onto an A0 paper or US equivalent. Remember to measure the check square at the store before you go home to ensure your pattern has been printed correctly.

The PRINT AT HOME file can be printed with any standard printer at home. It must be printed true to size at scale 100% and orientation “Auto”.  It contains 15 pages that you must assemble by cutting the margins and taping them together following the numbers and letters indicated on each page. This file suits both A4 and US Letter printers. Remember to measure the test square on the first page before printing all 15 pages to ensure your pattern is 
printing at the correct scale.
