As a complete novice at sewing, I just wanted to say thank you so much for making a software program that I can understand. My first make was #117 the Knit Tank Dress but I was too scared to make a dress (because I've never sewn a garment before) so I cut the bottom off the pattern to make a Tank Top. I was genuinely shocked that it fit so well, regardless of my far-from-perfect sewing. I made the Tank Top again but this time double lined it and it was even better. Actually I'm wearing it right now!
I wanted a winter jumper so I did a mockup of the #77 Crossover V-neck Knit Shirt with an unknown fabric (not stretchy) that I bought from a secondhand shop. I tried my best but the sleeves were too tight and I accidentally attached the collar inside out.
So when I made it this time I would use stretchy fabric and I would pay attention to the collar! This is the back of #77 my winter jumper.

Look - I got the collar right side out this time!

I am so unbelievably grateful that Pattern Maker Pro has removed the complexity to get me going. It was truly a hand up, not a hand out. Thank you Lori.
