I did not want to have a PDF pattern!

We do not sell printed patterns and we do not offer refunds on digital patterns, except as noted in our FAQ. The patterns found on our web site are only available as digital downloads from our web site and are not available as printed patterns sold in stores. We try to make it as clear as possible that the patterns are downloadable.

Here is a link to helpful information about downloading, printing and assembling our patterns: https://www.burdastyle.com/guide-downloadable-pattern

If you cannot print your pattern at home, we suggest that you put the pattern onto a flash drive and take it to a local print shop. Most large office supply stores and Fedex locations offer this service. Some of them also allow you to upload files via their web sites. A quick local Internet search should produce some results for you.

I think that there is a defect on my pattern. What do I do?

Please contact us if you think that the model has a defect. Don’t forget to specify the model number and attach photos or screenshots.

How do I know if my PDF pattern is the right size?

You must check whether your printer settings have not changed the scale of the document while printing. To do this, start by printing only the sheet containing the test square and check that it measures10x10cm. Then, you can print all of the pages and assemble them. You can check our guide just here!

Do I need to add a seam allowance?

Seam allowances are not included in Burda Style patterns, but the instructions may indicate that seam allowances have been included. Be sure to read the model instructions.

How are Burda Style patterns sized?

Burda sizes are generally larger than "standard” sizes. Therefore, check your measurements and refer to the Burda size guide!

Can I sell Burda patterns which I have sewn myself?

Following our rules and what is mentioned in our magazine, our patterns can be copied only for private use and cannot be sold. On the other hand, if one of our readers buys a magazine or a pattern and has it made by a professional seamstress for his or her own use, then there is no problem.
