How to Use Your PDF Pattern
From download to cut fabric in four simple steps — no guesswork, no resizing surprises.
DOWNLOAD
Download your files right after checkout, from your confirmation email, or anytime from your account. Every pattern includes a print-at-home, projector, and large-format copy shop file.
PRINT
Print the file at “Actual Size” or 100%, never “Fit to page.” Print the first page and measure the test square with a ruler before printing the rest.
ASSEMBLE
Follow the numbered rows and match up the grey circles and borders, then tape or glue your pages together. Our newer patterns are trimless; older patterns need to be trimmed on the right and bottom edge.
SEW!
Cut out your pattern pieces and you’re ready to go!
FAQ
How do I print my PDF pattern?
All of our patterns come in a Letter/A4 format (for printing on a home printer) and 36"x48"/A0 format (for printing at a copyshop). Some patterns also come in a projector format. Please check the INFO+ tab under the description to see page counts and file formats available.

How do I download my PDF Pattern?
First, we suggest creating an account in our shop so you can access all your files in one place at any time!
After you place an order, you will land on a page with a custom download link. You can download your pattern then, or use the link included in the order confirmation sent via email. If you don’t receive a download link via email, please check your junk mail as it may have been rerouted (and add us to your safe senders list so it doesn't happen again!)
Am I charged for taxes?
All Canadians are charged GST and possibly PST depending on where they live in Canada. We do not charge taxes in the US.
Customers based in the EU and UK will also be charged VAT on all goods. Prices are VAT inclusive. Regulations have changed in recent years requiring VAT to be collected based on where the customer resides (and not where the company is located) so we are legally required to collect and remit VAT even though our company is based in Canada. You can read more about the VAT regulations here.
What currency will I be charged in?
Use the dropdown at the top of our menu to choose USD, CAD, AUD, GBP, or EUR dollars to view prices and checkout in the currency of your choice.
For AUD currency, the price you'll see is linked to the daily exchange rate between USD and your currency, which means prices may fluctuate. For our Canadian, EU and UK, customers, we have established set prices that will not vary with exchange rates.
What is your return policy?
We cannot issue refunds on digital goods like PDF patterns and courses if they have been downloaded or watched. If you have not downloaded your file and would like a refund, please contact us.
Customer Reviews
Very pleased with this pattern, although a little suprisingly I was at the largest end of the size range which isn't usual
The pattern and instructions were fairly easy to follow and most importantly I created a great shirt dress out of it and I very pleased with the outcome

Great instructions, beautiful silhouette. Works with large-scale fabric motifs due to the design of the pieces. I've already made up two and constantly get compliments.
