- Projector Files (for use with home projectors for cutting out fabric; please see the group Projectors for Sewing for more information)
- A0 Files (large-format 33″ x 46″ pattern page for printing at your local copy shop, in case you would rather not tape together the pattern pages that are included in the PDF pattern)

- 1/3 yard/metre of lining fabric

Beautiful! Can the book cover pattern be adjusted for smaller sized books?
Hi Barbara! If you just need it less-wide for thinner books, you can cut your Zipper Panels each less wide. If you needed the whole project to be smaller, I have a video showing how to increase/decrease a pattern, which you can find here: https://sewsweetness.com/2022/06/how-to-increase-or-decrease-a-sewing-pattern.html
Thank you!
