Unlike traditional sewing patterns you might find at a craft store, these are patterns that you can instantly download to your computer. You can print patterns from your home or at a local copy shop.

Once you purchase a pattern, you will receive PDF files in a zipped folder. Unzip the folder to access the files.

You can print the pattern files at home or at a copy shop.

At Home:

If you choose to print at home, use the letter-sized PDF pattern (8.5 × 11 in). When you print, make sure to select “actual size” or scale to 100%.

There is a test square on each pattern. Print this test page first and measure the square with a ruler to make sure it is printing to size. Then proceed in printing the rest of the pattern to assemble.

Copy Shop:

Want to dive right in without having to assemble the pattern? Use the copy shop / A0 PDF pattern.

Note: copy shop paper is 36 × 46 in (standard size in the U.S.) and A0 paper is about 33 × 47 in (standard size used in other countries).

Here are a few companies that offer this service online.
