I have printed out the Size A0 pattern pieces and traced onto some trace and toil and am ready to cut out the fabric.
However my Size 1 piece doesn’t match up with the grain line arrow on my Size 4 piece – D cup.
What am I doing wrong I wonder? The Centre Front line matches but not the grain line arrow. Apart from that it looks correct.

Are the sizes up to size 4 designed to accommodate diapers? Also, is there a size chart on your website that indicate a waist measurement for the different sizes? Thank you.

Enbee replied to the topic Assembling PDF patterns in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 3 years ago
What are you trying to enlarge?
At least for the O+S patterns, the pattern is sort of in three parts: there are the instructions themselves (comes first), the pattern pieces intended to be printed out on your standard home printer (after the instructions), and the large-scale pages intended to be printed out on a large-format printer (usually the…[Read more]
