Hello, Designistas! By the end of this video, I will demonstrate how to create a professional PDF sewing template in Adobe Illustrator for US-Letter paper size. This template can be used for your digital sewing patterns on your home printer. The steps include creating the artboards, labeling the pages, and saving it as a sewing template that you can use for your e-patterns, such as those created in Clo 3D.
Here are the key steps:
Creating the Pages
- Create 40 art boards with a page size of 7.5 inches by 10 inches.
- Set Bleed and Spacing to 0 (zero).
Creating the Borders
- Create borders for each artboard with a size of 7.5 inches by 10 inches.
- Use a 2-point stroke and no fill.
- Align the borders horizontally and vertically with the artboards.
Creating the Circles
- Create 0.5-inch (1/2-inch) circles with a gray fill and 70 percent opacity.
- Place one at each corner of every art board.
Numbering the Pages
- Use a font size of 120 and set the opacity to 70 percent.
- Place the page numbers about 1/3 from the top of each page and set the opacity to 70 percent.
- Creating the Scaling SquareCreate a 1-inch by 1-inch square with a 1-point stroke.
- Label it as "1” x 1” in."
- Align it correctly using the align tools in Adobe Illustrator.
- Create a 2.5 centimeters by 2.5 centimeters square with a 1-point stroke.
- Label it as "2.5 x 2.5 cm."
- Align it using the align tools.
- Notes: Be sure to measure the 1-inch by 1-inch (2.5 centimeters by 2.5 centimeters) square before cutting the fabric.
- Text size 14 pt.
