Tutorial: Easy and quick way to assemble PDF sewing patterns

It took me a while, but I’m a convert over to PDF patterns over printed tissue patterns. Sure you have to print and assemble, but you save yourself a trip to the store (or waiting for shipping time if you’re buying independent patterns), you don’t have to trace if you’re planning to use it for more than one size, and there’s no folding up that tissue. Kennis from Itch to Stitch shares her quick method for assembling a PDF pattern. Her method looks to be an improvement over the methods I’ve used before, so I’m definitely going to give it a try on the next PDF pattern I assemble.
