All patterns as well as The Companion to Simple Couture Patterns are delivered to customers as downloads of pdf files.
Immediately upon purchase, the customer receives an email confirmation of the order. This order receipt contains a Download link located directly below the name of the item ordered. Click on this Download link to bring the pdf file icon to the computer desktop. Double-click the pdf file icon to open the file.
The Download link will be active for a period of 48 hours or through two downloads, whichever comes first. The 48 hour period begins immediately upon purchase, when the order receipt arrives; downloads are restricted to the computer from which the purchase was made. Once the 48 hour period has elapsed or the file has been downloaded twice, the Download link will expire; it will become inactive and the customer will no longer be able to retrieve the file.
