Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, ensure you have a clear, flat surface for cutting your fabric. It is highly recommended to iron your fabric before laying out the pattern pieces to ensure accuracy. If you are new to Style Arc patterns, note that seam allowances are typically included; check your specific instruction sheet to confirm. For care of the finished garment, follow the laundering instructions based on the specific fabric you selected during the creation process. Keep the paper pattern templates in a dry, cool area away from direct sunlight to prevent the paper from becoming brittle over time.
