Printing Correctly

📐 Printing Box

  • Files included for A0, A4 and US Letter
  • Print at 100% / actual size — never "scale to fit" (print guide included)
  • Measure the 2" × 2" test square before cutting any fabric (has to be perfect)
  • Print from a laptop/computer for the most reliable print settings
  • A0 files can be taken to a local print shop
  • Printed & Shipped is also available if you'd rather skip tiling & sticking at home
Open Print & Tiling Guide

📎 Tiling Pages?

If you're printing at home on A4 or US Letter, your pages need tiling and sticking together before cutting fabric. Full instructions on the Help page.

Seam Allowance

✂️ Seam Allowance Box

  • Every Roughcut pattern (except a few early patterns like the Ushanka Cap and Duffle Bag) already has 1/4" seam allowance built in
  • Cut directly on the pattern line — no need to add anything
  • Pocket, collar and front panel areas may use different allowances — these are stated in Steve's tutorial
  • If unsure, watch the tutorial before cutting

⚠ First Build? Read This First

  • Buy a little extra denim — welt pockets leave no room for re-cutting if you make a mistake
  • Don't cut your final fabric until your test square is correct
  • Watch the community tutorial before cutting into good fabric
  • Decide on your front panel option (straight or V-front) before cutting
