WHAT DO I GET WITH MY PURCHASE?

Please note you are purchasing a digital pattern that will be sent directly to your email inbox after payment. You can print this pattern at home on A4 or US letter-sized paper or take it to a print shop for large scale printing (AO size). *You will not receive a hard copy printed pattern.*

Instant download available immediately after checkout includes:

1. Instructions

2. PAH Pattern file (PAH=Print at home)
For printing in A4 or US Letter on a home printer. Printing at home is the most cost-effective, and sticking your pattern tiles together to make your full size pattern is easy. Further information for printing at home can be found in our Resources section here. 

3. AO Pattern file
AO is a large scale file designed to be printed at a Print Copy Shop. You cannot print this on your home printer as it is too big. If you choose to use this large file you will pay extra to have it printed but you do not have to stick anything together.

You can use the ADOBE LAYERS FEATURE to open the PAH pattern file and print only the size you need (and eliminate the "noise" of the unwanted sizes). You can also use the URL and bookmark links within the file to quickly access information and support. Download Adobe Reader for free (for Windows and Mac) here.

Stitchbird dress

The stitchbird dress was fairly easy the make, I had to read the well written instructions a few times to work out how the back pleat was constructed but worked it out. Small tip make sure the notches are well marked it will make it a lot easier. I made the size 18 it looks lovely but might go down a size next time, it’s a very roomy and comfortable dress. The only negative is I thought the neck facing was a bit narrow so might experiment with making it wider next time. I can see this pattern being one of my favourites

Super pattern

Another winner from the Sewing Revival. Easy to print and put together. Instructions are easy to follow. I made this in a cotton linen blend and am very pleased with the result. With every one of these patterns you learn something new, so they are great for confident sewists like me.

Well done!

This is my second purchase from Sewing Revival. This pattern also downloaded and printed out without any hiccups. Once again, the instructions were very clear and easy to follow. I am not an absolute beginner, but it would also be suitable for anyone venturing into this area for the first time. There is good help available from the website if anyone is stuck. Well done Sewing Revival.

Easy and Chic

I've made this dress for myself. I acquired some retro fabric and the donor wanted a dress made. I was wearing my Stitchbird dress and she said she'd have one.I had to buy a new pattern in a smaller size as she is so little. As I've made it before, it was even easier this time. I love this dress in any size - it always looks so classy and a little different!

Stitch bird press

I have to say I am a beginner sewer and I have learnt a lot from ordering the pattern having the pattern printed getting the fabric. It’s been fun to do with friends and I am ready to take on more projects. I love the community feel to sewing revival

Toller Schnitt,

Der Schnitt ist super, die Passform auch. Ich habe mir bereits 2 Kleider genäht und trage sie sehr gerne. Der Schnitt ist einfach und die Anleitung ist trotz englischer Sprache gut zu verstehen.

Stitchbird Dress

Love the styles of the patterns on The Sewing Revival & loved this pattern. Made it as a tunic instead of a dress out of woven print & also a tunic out of Double Brushed Poly and both came out so cute!

I love the dress but don't like that I can not access my pattern easier. I downloaded the file to use with my projector. I would like to print the pdfs but no longer have access to the file.
