WISSEW SEWING PATTERNS
All our PDF patterns are sold in A4 format, which can be printed using a standard home printer. In addition to A4 format, some patterns are also available in A0 format.
The A0 format saves time on the assembly stage. For these, use a professional printer or visit a print shop. Whether you choose A0 or A4, the final result will be the same.
In general, seam allowances are included in all our patterns, with some exceptions. However, we recommend checking the pattern manual to confirm the seam allowance values.
For A3, A4 and US Letter formats, you can piece together the board using the assembly drawing, remember to cut out the margins if necessary and to neatly glue the sheets together.

Hello to you,
Are you wondering how to print the pattern you just acquired?
As with all conventional prints, you need an A4 printer if your pattern is in A4 format.
However, you need to pay attention to two things to be sure of the right scale:
1- your printer must be properly configured with a 100% scale, so that it does not add any margin to you. In addition, remember to respect the orientation: landscape or portrait.
2- print the test square of your PDF only (small square of an area of ​​the PDF pattern allowing to realize the scale) measure it and check if the scale is the correct one. Once verified, you can print the entire pattern.
If the pattern is in A0 format, which is the actual size, we recommend that you go and use a self-service printer in town instead.
