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.

Besides patterns being relatively easy, Pattern Emporium has given me huge confidence boost as everything I sew from this company turns out beautifully. Cannot recommend highly enough.
Hi Pat. Thank you for your lovely review. It's wonderful to hear that your PE sewing projects have been so successful and boosted your confidence—music to my ears! Happy sewing! Kate x
Lovely pattern, brilliant instructions, will buy more patterns in the future
Hi Julie! Thank you for the fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear you love it and found it easy to make. Happy sewing and enjoy your new tee!
Love this shirt perfect fit and so comfy to wear. The pattern instructions are so clear and easy to follow!!! I will be making many more
Hi Michelle! Thank you so much for your glowing review of our Besties Tee. We're so happy to hear that you love the fit and comfort of the shirt. This is definitely one of our favorites too! Happy sewing and we can't wait to see your future creations. :)
I just love this pattern, so many options with necklines, sleeves, length etc. I can make t-shirts to suit me rather than just buy whatever the stores say are in fashion. Very easy to make and the tutorial shows you every step so you get it right every time. I think I will make all my own t-shirts now and give away all my bought ones. This is how much I love this pattern.
