Make custom patterns with this CD. You put in your own measurements and it forms the pattern that will fit. Many different designs. I have used this many time and its great. No size limit.

Questions & Comments

I am not sure I understand this...does it actually print out a pattern for you, on your printer?

You put your measurements in and make up your own design and it prints it out.

Thanks!

When my husband got home I asked him about this, he is kind of a geek..lol. He said that usually the software will say its mac compatible. I paid a couple hundred for this software and I have used it quite a bit. If you sew a lot or are an odd size its worth the money.

This program retails for $25.00
No one can degrade this program and be taken seriously. This is a fantastic deal and whoever wins this auction should thank you for listing this.

Sep 8th, 2011 at 6:11:55 PM PDT by

I paid more than that for it but its been several years ago. I think I got another one for accessories also.

This is a CD. I have never got an update for it. Just software you put on your computer. Nothing is online. An internat connection is NOT required. Maybe you are talking about a different version.

Sep 8th, 2011 at 8:25:23 PM PDT by

If you can run it on Windows/Vista, you can run it on Mac. I have done this manually, after taking a class, and there is a lot of math and metric measuring to be done. This is fantastic. Instead of taking hours to do a pattern you could just put in the disc?!! Wow!! I have gotta have this !! And yes, if it can make the pattern larger there is no reason why it couldn't make it smaller! It looks like it has the basic patterns that all patterns are derived from. You just adjust and adorn. Thank you so much for listing this :-)

Sep 8th, 2011 at 6:03:46 PM PDT by

I really think you are talking about a newer version. This will NOT run on a mac. It is for Window 95 versions up to Vista. That is what it says on the disk.

Sep 8th, 2011 at 8:28:27 PM PDT by

This software is awesome! If you need more information, here is the manufacturer's website - it will tell you if it is mac or not. :) I have a PC, so it isn't a problem for me. The pattern size goes from junior girl to no limit adult woman. :)

I have personally made down to a size 4T with this program. They do sell a program for children.

Sep 7th, 2011 at 12:35:54 AM PDT by

are there just basic designs (skirt, top, etc.) or can you customize them to a specific design?

Sep 6th, 2011 at 6:23:09 PM PDT by

If gives you unlimited options on sleves, necklines, skirt flare, necklines etc. You can change anything you want anyway you want.

Sep 7th, 2011 at 12:39:09 AM PDT by

ok, I see from your pictures that it does. This is so cool. I have never seen anything like this before.

Sep 6th, 2011 at 11:00:27 AM PDT by

I have had a good time with it.

Sep 6th, 2011 at 11:19:14 AM PDT by

it's great that there is no size limit!

Sep 5th, 2011 at 5:54:20 PM PDT by

I have made from a 4T up to a size 30W. Great to have a pattern tailored to fit!

Sep 5th, 2011 at 10:08:04 PM PDT by

i am a fashion designer, of course, and have many sketches. This would be perfect for the business. I am watching and will bid!

Sep 5th, 2011 at 5:53:38 PM PDT by

The only limit is your imagination. I used to teach sewing we made patterns for everyone with this. It even gives you instructions on how to lay out the pattern on the material and how much you need.

Sep 5th, 2011 at 10:09:30 PM PDT by

I've never heard of this kind of thing but as much sewing as I love to do, it could be just wonderful! I think I run Win98 on my older PC... I'll have to check, but if I do, I'm bidding:-)

Sep 5th, 2011 at 2:00:22 PM PDT by

It says Windows 95 to Vista on the front. The main thing is having a good printer.

Sep 5th, 2011 at 10:13:46 PM PDT by

dumb question but would this work for toddler sizes??

Sep 4th, 2011 at 5:39:05 AM PDT by

Not a dumb question! You put the actual measurments of the person you are sewing for in the program. So yes, I don't see why you couldn't use it for kids. Its a pretty cool program. You should never have to buy another pattern!

Sep 4th, 2011 at 11:01:26 AM PDT by

LOVE this!! Have many designs and its very hard to make your own patterns... So Id love this!! Plus I run windows on my pc:) Btw, if it doesn't say it will run on mac, then it won't. In my experience with macs, it has to say mac compatible. Bid & Watching! Please check out my auctions and stay tuned as I have more to come!!

Sep 1st, 2011 at 10:10:28 PM PDT by

Great! Hope you win! Its nice to have custom tailored patterns. Its only limit is your imagination.

Sep 2nd, 2011 at 12:38:21 AM PDT by

Thanks.

Sep 1st, 2011 at 7:25:08 PM PDT by

Thanks again. It sounds like a nice item!

Sep 1st, 2011 at 6:45:17 AM PDT by

:) Hope it will work for you.

Sep 1st, 2011 at 12:58:34 PM PDT by

Is this for both Windows and Mac or just Windows only?

Aug 31st, 2011 at 12:55:14 PM PDT by

It says Windows 98 to Vista CD ROM. I don't know if it would be interchangable with a Mac or not. I think you can run pretty much anything on a Mac you can on Windows. I know all the programs I have ever used can be run on either. You might call Best Buy or a place like that and ask if a program runs on windows can it be run on a mac.

Aug 31st, 2011 at 1:47:29 PM PDT by

ooohhhhhhh i want this! it would be so great for me!

Its not toddler styles but the way the pattern maker works, you put the measurements in and it makes the pattern according to the measurement. The CD also says no size limits. I have used it and made anything from little girls dresses to size 30 dresses. I think it would be fine for toddlers clothes.

Sep 4th, 2011 at 8:18:29 PM PDT by

gotta get more credits!!!

Sep 7th, 2011 at 5:29:56 PM PDT by

Invite some friends! I know its frustrating when you want something and you just can't get there.

Unlike commerical paper patterns though, Click&Sew automatically creates custom fit fashion patterns for a wide variety of figure types drafted to your measurements.
Click & Sew patterns are sized for adult women through junior girls. There are no upper size limitations.
In addition, Click & Sew patterns are not limited to any season. No pattern making skills are ever needed. Patterns may be tiled and printed on your home computer and printer using any size sheet of paper and then taped together for a complete, full scale pattern.
Each Click & Sew pattern contains the Pattern Drafter, Yardage Calculator, Garment Construction Sheets and an embroidery placement and planning tool.

Thanks for the info. But I have made dresses for my grandaughter and she is a size 4T. I know they make kids size pattern CD as well. I just know what I have been able to do with it.

Sep 8th, 2011 at 8:23:24 PM PDT by

OKay, My darling of a Geek husband looked this up....there is an update for this online. You only need to install the update if you are installing on Vista or Windows 7. There are multiple pattern makers by Wild Ginger. Refer to NormaJeans1 comments, she is correct. There are free updates online. WILL NOT RUN ON THE MAC OS UNLESS YOU HAVE IT RUNNING VIRTUAL PC, PARALLELS, AND BOOTCAMP. THANK YOU NORMAJEAN1
