What is a PDF pattern?

A PDF sewing pattern is a sewing pattern you buy online and is sent to by email. Depending on where you purchase the pattern, it will either come to you as an email attachment or a link to a page where you would open the document and then save it to your computer. Once downloaded, you can print it out on your home printer using regular ink and letter paper for domestic or A4 for international customers. You then piece the pattern together with tape or glue and cut out as you would a normal pattern. Often PDF sewing patterns have a better fit than paper patterns from large companies due to the many hours put in testing the pattern out on various sized children or adults to get the fit just right. Most PDF sewing patterns are designed by inde

What do I need to use your PDF sewing patterns?

Besides a sewing machine and materials, you will need a home printer and letter or A4 paper to print your pattern pages. If you are using the A0 copy shop file, you will need to have that file printed locally or order it from an online source. If you are piecing your pattern pages together, you will need tape or a glue stick.

What is an A0 File and how do I print it?

An A0 file is a pattern you get printed on one - two large sheets of paper at a local copy shop like Fedex or Staples. This eliminates the time to sit and tape together pattern pages. Watch the video below on how to print A0 size files: https://youtu.be/za-_oTOvnk0

Is seam allowance already included in your patterns?

Yes, the seam allowance is already included in all of our sewing patterns. No need for you to do any extra work to add it in. Enjoy!

Can I sell things that I have made using your patterns?

Yes, I would love for you to be able to make a profit and run a business using my designs. You may use them to make finished items for gifts, personal use, and items you sell. You cannot sell the patterns or instructions themselves or give/share patterns with anyone else. The patterns are protected under copyright law.

How do I use a projector file?

How do I piece together PDF pattern pieces?

Ellie and Mac originally had trim pages for our pattern pages. That means that the patterns printed inside a frame and the side and bottom of that frame needed to be trimmed away using scissors or a dull rotary cutter before taping or gluing together. Here is a video on how the trimless pages are pieced together. All new patterns are drafted on trimless pattern pages.

What if my file doesn't work or there is an error?

If you have an error or can't get your pattern to download or open, we are more than happy to help you correct the issue and get it working for you. Try to fix this yourself by deleting the first file and then downloading the pattern again. See if this fixes the error. If not, we will help you to get it working. Please send us an email at hello@ellieandmac.com and we'll get back with you as soon as we're able.

I like all the different panel options you can make to the bag. The instructions were very clear and I definitely want to make multiple when I have the time.
