The Winter Dress MARYSOL pattern includes 1 ZIP files and 4 PDFs: The pattern (XXS - 3XL) in DinA4, DINA0 and US LETTER, general information regarding the pattern and how to print it, a tech sheet (like in the pictures) and sewing instructions with pictures (Split into Part 1 & 2 to be able to upload it to Etsy). You are able to print out the pattern at home and tape the pages together by aligning the diamonds on the edges of the pages together. You only have to print out ONE PDF. The difference is just in paper size; please research the paper size your country and your printer are using and refer to the PDF with the corresponding name. Alternatively, you can use a projector or get the A0 printed at a copy shop. Please read the general information PDF carefully that will be included in this purchase to be able to print correctly and the sewing instructions for more details.
Even though the name suggests a seasonal pattern, this is completely dependent on the fabric you choose. I chose a woolen blend which is typically used for coats. It has a nice thick weave that keeps you warm without having to layer clothes. If you use any other fabric, like a classic cotton, satin or rayon, this pattern is very much adaptable to be worn throughout the whole year. I just found the idea of this Edwardian-esque pattern for a winter dress quite charming which is why I went with the name "Winter Dress".
This pattern is WITHOUT seam allowance. As some of my customers use the imperial system, myself and a lot of my other customers use metric, having no seam allowance in my pattern is just the easiest middle ground. I made sure to prepare this pattern in such a way that you only have to add the same seam allowance of your choice all around the pattern pieces.
