Fabric
Recommended fabrics: We love linen for this project, but any light to mid weight woven fabric will do. We do recommend you wash and dry your fabric before you sew. Every fabric has shrinkage, be sure to take this into account when choosing fabric.
Yardage for all sizes & fabric widths: ranges from 0.4m/yard - 0.5m/yard, see second last image for yardage chart.

PDF Printing
This pattern comes layered, which means that you can turn off the sizes you do not need. In order to do this, you must have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your computer. You can then open the PDF file in Adobe Acrobat Reader and choose the layers icon on the left hand side of the screen. Once the layers are open, click the eye icon off on all the sizes you do not want to be visible.
To print at home, open the file in your preferred browser and print at 100% scale. The file is designed for both A4 & US Letter paper. Printing from Google Chrome offers the best result because each page will align in the upper left hand corner. This way the pattern can easily be tiled together without needing to trim any edges. Utilize the test square on the first page to check your scale.
To print at a copy shop, give the A0 file to the staff via email or on a usb flash drive. Ask them to print the file at 100% scale.
