Great question! After completing a purchase, you'll be redirected to a page with a blue download button that links to your files. You'll also receive two emails: a confirmation email from Shopify, plus an additional email from deliveries@skypilotapp.com with the same download button you saw on the website confirmation page. You can also access the download button by clicking on the order status page in the confirmation email. Please save these messages in case you need to redownload the files in the future. If you don't receive either email, please check your updates or promotions inbox as well as your spam folder first before contacting me.

PDF patterns can be printed at home on your regular printer or sent away to a copy shop to be printed on large format (A0) paper. Each of my patterns has detailed instructions for printing and assembly, plus I have a video tutorial to show you exactly how!

Episode 4 of my Learn to Sew series also covers PDF sewing patterns in more detail.

My sizes most closely align with general US sizing, but every size chart is unique. I would definitely choose your size by determining where your measurements land you on my size chart vs. what size you typically are in other size charts.

My house is itty bitty, so I built my dream sewing studio in the backyard to give me more space to work. The structure is a converted shed, which I finished myself. I give a full tour with links and building details in this video.

I have a discord group called Sewing Besties, with 1600+ lovely humans who chat all things sewing: pattern recommendations, fabric questions, showing off finished makes, machine troubleshooting, etc. Especially if you don’t have many IRL friends who sew, the group is an incredible resource! Join here.

My biggest advice to aspiring entrepreneurs is to JUST START. I have always taken steps before I quite knew where my feet would land. If you wait until everything feels perfectly sorted, you will never get anywhere. Push imposter syndrome out of your mind, learn on the job, and go with your gut. Experience and failure are the best teachers!
