![]() ![]() You might notice that I didn’t cut all four corners on this page. The angle does not matter at all, so you can do this quickly. On this page, I trim the corners so that the cut touches the very corner of the rectangle. You should see all four lines of the rectangle on the page. Make sure the pages you print are correct. ![]() Please go over there and give the video a thumbs up! I knew some of you must know! Thank you Deva. If any of you know the original video, I’d love to link to it so I can give the lady proper credit. The bummer is that I no longer have the link. Thank you Rita!) The video is in German not that I understood a word of it, but I was able to just see what she was doing. (Rita is my friend and trusty proof-reader for almost all of my patterns. I learned this method of assembling print-at-home pattern from a German video that Rita referred me to. It might not be for you, but I’d like to share this with you anyway in case you find it helpful too. One disclaimer though-I am not saying this is the best way to assemble print-at-home patterns in fact, this method has some pitfalls. I think it has something to do with the printer feeder. But for my printer, I can’t do it because the pages don’t always print at the exactly same spot. Some people stack their printed pages together and use a rotatory cutter to cut all the edges/margins off. The best way is to have a large-format printer at my disposal, but since I don’t, I think this method works for me. Sometimes I have to print and assemble MANY times. I think this is a good thing because I catch a lot of errors and find areas of improvement just by doing it exactly as what my customers would do. The way you print and assemble a pattern at home is the way I print and assemble my patterns. I don’t have a large-format printer at home. Then if I have any changes, I revise, print and assemble the pattern again. When I draft a pattern and place it in the proper format, I print my pattern. Do you want to see how I assemble my PDF patterns at home? Unlike most people, I print and assemble my patterns many times. ![]()
