Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting your project, ensure your workspace is clean and that you have a sharp pair of fabric shears and appropriate pins. Review the sizing chart on the back of the envelope carefully to select the size that aligns with your measurements, not your standard retail clothing size. When caring for your patterns, store them flat or loosely rolled in a dry area to prevent creases that could distort your measurements. Always read the back of the envelope for specific pre-washing instructions for your chosen fabrics to ensure the final garment retains its fit after the first wash.
