Have you ever shopped for clothes and thought, "Oh, this dress would have been perfect had they not added the trim, ruffles, and pleats" or "If only this skirt had a little more room in the hips. Clothes never fit my unique shape?". Perhaps you love to sew and have purchased patterns that did not quite live up to your level of creativity.

Well, if you like to design your own clothes for yourself and/or others, Patterned After Me: Your Introduction to Personal Patternmaking offers simplified methods to create an infinite number of styles for shirts, skirts, and dresses.
