PRINTING YOUR PDF SEWING PATTERNS.
At Pattern Emporium, most of our patterns include Print-at-Home, A0 Copy Shop, and Projector pattern files. Each listing specifies which formats are available for that particular pattern.
In each of our sewing pattern tutorials, you’ll find detailed information specific to that pattern's printing options.
1. Printer Settings. It's important to select the correct printer settings to ensure your pattern prints to the correct scale. You'll find printer specs in your tutorial &, for more detail, here on the website.
2. Page Printing Guide. You don’t need to print every page or size – just the ones you need. Our guide in the tutorial helps you identify exactly which pages to print.
3. Layout Summary. This shows what your print at home pattern will look like once assembled (taped together).
4. A0 Copy Shop Printing. What to ask for when printing at a copy shop. We recommend requesting plan printing and following the specs outlined above. Please note, printing at a copy shop is always going to be more expensive that printing at home.
For reliable A0 printing in Australia, we recommend Kristen at Dahlia Sewciety & Shelley at Plan Make Do.
In the United States, our customers recommend PDF Plotting.

This pattern was so fast & easy. I love that way it drapes in the sweater knit I chose. Will definitely be making more. Thanks PE.
This seems like too much work to simply get a pattern. I’m sorry I ordered. I probably will not be ordering more patterns.
Hi Teresa. I understand that transitioning to PDF patterns can feel like a big adjustment if it’s your first time. It’s a shame we’ve caught the brunt of your frustration with the process because we’d really love for you to experience how rewarding it can be. If you’d like guidance on how to get started, please reach out—we’re here to help!
I’m still amazed at how clever this pattern is. The only problem is that everyone wants me to sew it now. :-) It is such an easy sew and really feels like an embrace. I have many more to come. Thank you for a great pattern.
Hi Yaron. Thank you for your lovely review! It’s always a compliment when everyone wants one too—that’s when you know you’ve made something special. Enjoy sewing your next My Embrace Cardis, and happy sewing! Kate
This must be the easiest and quickest pattern ever! Absolutely love my first one made in a jersey style fabric and already on the second make - this time in a thicker lose wool style fabric which still drapes well. Looks great with jeans.
Thank you for your lovely review! It sounds like the My Embrace Cardi is becoming a go-to for you. I love that. Enjoy making more! Happy sewing!
A very easy make, even the hemming of the project. Very little fitting needs to be done.
