Here's the first video in which I talk about some of the features of our online pattern designer:

Really great. How much is this going to cost per month?

I'm totally lost with all this technical stuff could you explained to me in simple terms how I could access this software and and use it. Would this just be my own designs or are there any designs you have created and we need to add our own measurements?
Thanks
Chris

Hello Chris,
The software itself is flexible to the same extent that you as a pattern designer are. You may draft literally anything you want given the tools and if you refer to the size measurements (sz constants) the software will automatically redraft your pattern for any size combinations.
If you would like to test our designs first, there are several options:
1) Use the templates in Editor window and after the pattern is loaded, change it further by using the tools such as cut, spread, split, etc. This will require the technical side unfortunately.
2) Use the Mix-and-Match tool to get basic sloper or skirt patterns (we are working on adding other garments as well)
3) Proceed to the store and get a pattern to your measurements.
In case you would like to try the first option, I'd be happy to help with using the tools. We may actually do this in the most public mode, as in you settle on an idea, start a pattern and I shall be looking and helping and commenting whatever issues you may run into. How does this sound?

I have been playing with reconstructing a dress pattern with bell sleeves and pleated cuffs, and there were a couple of interesting tweaks.
For example, the pleats on the cuff were made using a cycle. If you are interested, have a look at this public algorithm - I tried to add comments as I drafted, but if something is unclear I'd be happy to chat more :)

Another exercise in pattern reconstruction - this time it happened to be a rather advanced one. Don't get scared at the length of the code - it is mostly that long because of all the comments and explanations :)
The pattern is a bit WIP as of today - I am going to continue on it tomorrow.
I allowed export of pattern blocks in case anyone wants to test it :)
ETA to fix link
