How to Assemble Print at Home Patterns
Assembling your print at home pattern is very simple. All of our patterns come with a layered Print at Home PDF and a layered Copy Shop/A0 PDF. Layered simply means that you can view and print each size or layer at a time. This way you can print only your size if that works best for you. The PDF can also be printed with all sizes as well.
Step 1
Print your PDF centered on the page at 100% scale.
Step 2
Measure the 1" or 2 cm box to ensure that your scale is correct. If these boxes are measuring correctly then the rest of your pattern will be to scale.
Step 3
Trim off the right and bottom sides of the paper at the outlined box.
Step 4
Match up the circled letters at the corners of each page.
Overlap the left page on top of the right page to cover the blank space outside of the outlined box and complete the circle with the matching letters. Tape together to secure.
Step 5
Continue taping and matching all of the pages in the row. Repeat these steps for the second row.
Match the second row to the first using the circled letters as a guide. Tape together to secure.
Step 6
Cut out the pattern pieces for your desired size!

I’ve downloaded my free culottes pattern and am trying to find the AO option for printing but can’t seem to locate it. I have to send the pdf in to a local print shop but all I can see is the ‘print at home” option

Hi Joan! A0 refers to the size of the paper. When printing the pattern in a copy shop, the A0 pattern file is the one that you will use!
I am so confused with this color block set. And I cannot figure out how to cut out the bottom part and cuffs from the direction pages. Completely lost.

Hi Henrietta! If you go to Page 6 of the Sewing Instructions, you will see the pattern measurements for the bottom panels, cuff, and bias binding. Because these pieces are rectangular we did not include them in the print at home PDFs to minimize printing waste for our customers. If you have any other questions, please reach out to us at hello@matchymatchysewingclub.com and our team would love to help!
I have downloaded my first two (free) patterns: the Craft Studio T and the All Day Culottes. Where do I find how much fabric I need to purchase please?

Hi Julia! You can find the fabric requirements chart in the Sewing Instructions for each of the patterns. Alternatively, the chart is also included on each product page for our patterns on the website. It is the last image after the model photos :)
