✦ TERMS OF USE
All CosPayton products are for personal use only, and each purchase entitles you to a single-user license.

Patterns, files, and blueprints CAN be used for handmade/one-of-a-kind commercial use in certain cases. This includes theatre productions, performing arts, and one-of-a-kind cosplay commissions. This does NOT include small batch or mass production, and/or reselling of goods created with my products on external platforms, websites, or publications.

If a production partner or manufacturer is involved in any way, a contractual agreement is required to protect both parties. CosPayton reserves the right to request commercial fees for unlawful for-profit use of CosPayton patterns, or request the cessation of production if needed.

If using a CosPayton product for multiple commissions, please purchase a new copy for each item produced (under 5), and disclose to your client where the pattern is from.

External distribution, sharing, copying, tracing, or reproduction is not allowed under any circumstances.

✦ SUPPORT HUMAN ART
All CosPayton products are made by the “Payton” behind CosPayton, a professional patternmaker based in Ontario, Canada. No artificial intelligence or automation is used in the process. This includes drafting, grading, digitizing, pattern book writing, and more. CosPayton is proudly human and artisan-run and always will be.

✦ PLEASE NOTE: This pattern has yet to be updated to modern branding, but still has the same CosPayton quality you know and love! Most current sewing patterns got updates in 2025 to instructions, illustrations, and sizing.

As a solo-run business, my priority is constantly improving quality while also bringing you new and useful patterns.
