FAQs
How do PDF/ digital patterns work? Simply download, print, and sew. You’ll need a free Adobe Acrobat reader program and any home printer (or a nearby copy shop for A0 printing). Once you’ve printed the pieces, tape or glue them together. You’ll find an easy-to-follow how-to guide inside the pattern instructions, plus support in our Facebook group.
The trim-free pattern comes in A4 or US letter printable sizes and includes full pattern pieces and a detailed tutorial to guide you every step of the way. An A0 format (pattern pieces only) is also included should you wish to have your pattern printed professionally. PDF Layers allow you to select and print only the size/s you want/ need.

I love how this dress turned out!! The instructions were easy to follow, and the pictures with them were very helpful! The dress is so flattering!!
Kathryn Johnson –
Easy sew except for neckline, once you get thru that, it’s smooth sailing. Very comfortable and hackable. This fabric came from the thrift store at 0.50 cents a yard. It’s makes it even better when made for $2.00!

A gorgeous pattern for cool summer nights. Pattern came together easily, with clear instructions and small number of pieces. This lovely dress made from repurposed fabric found at a thrift store.
