How the templates work
The templates for Matilda, Girl in Yellow Coat are printed in Volume 5, ready to cut out of the book. There is no need for a photocopier or printer. Every pattern is printed twice, so you can cut one set of templates and keep the other for later, or fix a mistake without starting over.
Inside you'll also find a photo of the finished toy and step-by-step instructions you can follow even if you have never sewn before.
