🖨️ PRINTING & FILE FORMAT

  • 30 × 30: the US Letter Color and complete Blank PDFs each contain 26 pattern pages plus 1 reference page.
  • 50 × 50: 70 Color pattern pages in US Letter or 13 in A2. Each PDF includes 1 additional reference page.
  • 70 × 70: 132 Color pattern pages plus 2 reference and index pages in US Letter, or 27 Color pattern pages plus 1 reference page in A2.

Where both formats are supplied, US Letter and A2 produce the same finished dimensions. A2 requires a compatible printer or print service.

Print at 100% / Actual Size with Fit to Page and automatic scaling turned off. Check the scale square before printing the full pattern. An automatic fit setting on A4 may reduce the US Letter pattern to about 97.7% of its original size.

.

📐 CHOOSING YOUR SIZE

The 30 × 30-inch version gives you a compact portrait and the fewest US Letter sheets to prepare. The larger sizes give you more room within the pieces and require more time and workspace to assemble the paper sections, especially in US Letter.

.

🧵 SEWING NOTES

  • 30 × 30 inches: small pieces around the eyes and mouth, and in the hair highlights, take a little extra care where seam allowances overlap. Use the complete Blank file for a clear view of the sewing lines.
  • 50 × 50 inches: allow time to sort and glue the printed sheets into paper sections before sewing. US Letter has 70 Color pattern pages. A2 reduces this to 13, with fewer sheets to join.
  • 70 × 70 inches: this size takes the most patience to prepare in US Letter. Allow time and workspace to assemble the paper sections from 132 Color pattern pages before sewing. Use the index to locate the sheets for each section, or choose A2 if you can to reduce the Color pattern to 27 pages.

🧶 FABRIC REQUIREMENTS

Check the fabric requirements for your selected size in the product images before purchasing.

📉 RESIZING

For a smaller version, calculate the print percentage using (Desired size ÷ Purchased pattern size) × 100. Apply the same percentage to both axes. Printing the 50 × 50-inch version at 80% produces a 40 × 40-inch pattern.

Reducing the scale makes the pieces and printed seam allowances smaller. Check a test print before printing the full pattern. For a larger project, choose a larger offered size if available.
