But it doesn't have to be exact. If the entire pattern fits on an 8 X 11 sheet of regular paper, using almost all of the paper, it should be okay. Good luck!

There's not that much difference. The template doesn't have the seam allowances drawn in, so you'd have to add them if you want them drawn on. There isn't really a size, just preemie. I got the original pattern from a preemie gown that my granddaughter wore and made a few little changes so that they sew up faster. The nurses have told me that they work just fine, so I guess they're okay. Please do make some for your local NICU and good luck.

How big are the seam allowances? Do I have to draw in the seam allowances or are they included in the template?
