What is Included

  • A4/ US Letter Sized File for Printing at home (file is compatible with both paper types)
  • A0 file to be printed on 36" wide paper
  • Step by Step Full Video Tutorial
  • Step by Step Illustrated Instructions in PDF Format

Printing

For the A4/ US letter:

The file will be tiled, and is best printed from Adobe Acrobat. Make sure files are printed at actual size. There will be a test square for you to check sizing on the front page. The pages will then be taped together with either the bullseye, or diamond motif depending on which pattern is purchased

For A0 or copy shop files:

The file is meant to be printed on 36" wide paper. some of the older files are copy shop format, meaning its one long roll, and Fedex is a great option for this, although we really enjoy printing any of our large format prints at https://pdfplotting.com . They can handle both the A4, and copy shop formats, and are a great budget friendly resource! There will be a 2" test square to ensure the pages have been printed at the correct size.

Fabric & Supplies

Fabric Notes:

Recommended Fabrics:

Silk Crepe de Chine: Lightweight and flowing, perfect for creating soft gathers and an airy movement.

Chiffon: Adds a delicate, floaty effect to the dress, ideal for a romantic, ethereal look.

Voile: A semi-sheer, breathable option that’s great for warmer weather while still maintaining structure.

Georgette: Slightly more textured than chiffon, offering beautiful drape and gathers.

Lightweight Cotton Lawn: Breathable and crisp, giving a casual yet polished look.

Toile Netting: For a unique, whimsical take, especially if layered with an underlining for modesty and structure.

Rayon Challis: Soft, fluid, and comfortable, perfect for achieving graceful gathers and a flowing silhouette.

Linen Blend: Provides a relaxed fit and natural texture, great for transitional wear.
