Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, ensure you have a clear, flat surface for laying out the pattern pieces on your fabric. It is recommended to press the paper pattern pieces with a cool iron if they have become wrinkled during storage to ensure accuracy when tracing or pinning to your fabric. When cutting, use sharp fabric shears and maintain a consistent seam allowance as specified in the included instructions. Store the pattern pieces in a cool, dry place inside their original envelope to prevent tearing or moisture damage, ensuring they are ready for future use.
