    Note: Depending on your web browser's settings it may ask you if you'd like to Open or Save the file, make sure you 'Save' the file and remember the location you saved it. Your browser may download the file automatically and save it in your 'downloads' folder.

    Hi Judy - can you send me an email please to ask@fabrics-store.com and I will try to walk you through the steps to open the files with Adobe software.

    Once the Adobe is installed on your device - you would need to open Adobe and in the Adobe menu click open and find the name of the pattern you are trying to open. This is when Adobe will open that file for you.

    It will be easier via email because I can send screenshots of the steps to take. Have a great day.
