Printing Instructions:
This printable PDF pattern is assembled WITHOUT OVERLAPPING THE
PAGES. That will make it easier to assemble and avoid further fitting issues.
The pattern comes in letter size paper.

To print this pattern, go the PDF document. Select FILE -- PRINT.

It will print 30 pages. Wait until all the pages are printed before taking them from
the printer; it will make it easier to assemble.
When finish printing, place the pages as the layout below. Then use tape to put
them together. Now cut the pieces.

This is the layout of the pattern:

Sometimes, there are problems with the printing process and the patterns come
in the wrong size (a little bit smaller).
To avoid this, check the 1 inch square inside of the front bodice pattern. It will
help you to see if the patterns are the correct size.
The PDF pattern comes in sizes from 4 to 22 (US Size). If you have any doubts
about the sizes, please refer to the body measurements chart above.
