Macros are small software that generate patterns in custom measurements. Unlike our PDF Patterns that are created to fixed standard measurements. Macros use measurements specified by you. This way you can create perfectly fitting patterns for individuals. This gives you the potential of couture with the speed of limited edition mass production. The clothes made from the macros will require minimum fitting as long as measurements are taken precisely. They are installed on your computer along with Pattern Maker software. They are simple to use once installed.
