whoa! what is this built by you pattern business? i love to sew, and have an odd shaped body and have a terrible time finding pants that fit properly. does this pattern allow you to custom build pants?
hi! no, it's just a line of patterns from the designer Built by Wendy and Simplicity. someone recently told me about a line of patternmaking software called Wild Ginger; you might want to investigate?
