Top sewing tip

The bunting squares can either be double or single sided. Make a second bunting square of each spooky character if you settle on double-sided.

To print a large sewing template accurately on an A4 printer, you’ll need to tile the template across multiple pages. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

1) Go to File > Print 2) Select the “Poster” option under Page Sizing & Handling 3) Set tile scale to 100% 4) Tick “Cut Marks” and “Labels” for easier trimming and assembly 5) Ensure “Actual Size” or “100%” is selected (not “Fit to Page” or “Shrink”). 6) Trim edges using the cut marks. 7) Tape or glue pages together using the printed alignment labels.
