To print your pattern at 100% scale, first ensure your printer settings are set to print without scaling or resizing (usually under "Page Setup" or "Print Settings"). Select "Actual Size" or "No Scaling" in the options. Make sure to check the test square included in the pattern to verify the scale.

Yes, our patterns include a seam allowance of 1 cm (or approximately 3/8 of an inch), unless otherwise noted in the pattern description

An overlock is a type of stitch commonly used to finish raw fabric edges to prevent fraying. Overlock stitching is usually done with an overlock machine (often called a serger) and is often seen in ready-to-wear garments for a clean, professional finish.

Woven fabric is made by interlacing two sets of yarns at right angles to each other (warp and weft). This fabric is typically less stretchy than knit fabric and is often used for structured garments like shirts, pants, and jackets.

Knit fabric is made by interlocking loops of yarn, giving it more stretch and flexibility than woven fabric. It’s commonly used for garments that need a stretchy fit, such as t-shirts, leggings, and sweaters.

• Using a woven fabric on a knit sewing pattern: Knit patterns are designed with fabric stretch in mind. Woven fabrics do not have the inherent elasticity that knits do. If you use a woven fabric for a knit pattern, the garment will likely not fit properly. You may experience tightness or discomfort, and the garment may lack the desired drape or movement, especially in areas like the shoulders or waist. Additionally, the seams may not stretch as needed, causing the garment to pull or distort.
  
  
• Using a knit fabric on a woven sewing pattern: Woven patterns are designed for fabrics that don’t stretch, so they provide a more structured fit. When using knit fabric, the garment will likely turn out too loose, as the fabric’s stretchability allows it to expand beyond the pattern's intended fit. The pattern’s shaping and structure may not work well with the elasticity of knit fabrics, resulting in a garment that is baggy or unshaped.
  
  
• In short, it's important to match the fabric type to the pattern type to ensure the correct fit, structure, and comfort of your garment

Yes, you totally can! But be patient and kind with yourself. Sewing and crafting are a learning process. Start by searching for online tutorials, using solid patterns, making mockups, and doing fabric tests before cutting into your final material. You won’t get everything right the first time, and that’s completely okay! It’s all part of the process. If you have the will and commitment, you should be able to do it. Just take your time, follow the instructions carefully, and enjoy the journey!

Yes, we offer projector files for our more recent patterns. If a projector file is available, it will be mentioned in the listing description of the pattern.

Using a projector for sewing allows you to project the pattern pieces directly onto your fabric, eliminating the need to print and cut out paper pattern pieces. It saves time, reduces paper waste, and provides an efficient and precise way to cut your fabric.

Very rarely. Commissions can be extremely time-consuming, and we prefer to focus on creating and offering sewing patterns to our community.
