Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before beginning, ensure your machine is serviced and needles are appropriate for your chosen fabric weight. To prepare, press all pattern pieces flat with a cool iron to remove creases. When cutting, always double-check the sizing charts against your body measurements rather than store-bought clothing sizes. For long-term care, store your pattern tissue in a plastic sleeve or a flat box to prevent tearing. Because this is a paper-based product, store it in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the markings.
