Frequently Asked Questions
What is a PDF sewing pattern?
A PDF sewing pattern is a digital sewing pattern that you download instantly after purchase. Unlike traditional paper patterns, there’s no waiting for shipping! Simply download the files, print them at home on standard US Letter (8.5” × 11”) or A4 paper, or have them printed at a local copy shop. Then assemble the pattern (if needed) and start sewing.
Every Aloha Sewing Company pattern includes printable pattern pieces, detailed step-by-step instructions, and most also include a video sewing tutorial.
