What is PatternMaker?

PatternMaker is the primary software designed for crafting patterns, enabling users to generate and export their designs as digital files that can be shared online just like any other file type. This application offers multiple versions to meet diverse user requirements. Alongside it, MacroGen is a supportive tool that aids in creating these exportable files, known as macros. Users can customize these macros with different measurements, allowing them to modify patterns for a precise fit. To execute these macros, users must utilize the PatternMaker software. (Many applications, including Microsoft Word and Excel, also accept macros in a shareable format.) Consequently, access to PatternMaker is essential for working with a macro. Furthermore, Collection Creator enables users to compile several macros into a well-organized collection, which may feature themed items such as a range of summer dresses. This capability not only improves the overall user experience but also contributes to more efficient design workflows across a variety of projects, making the entire process of pattern creation more enjoyable and productive. Such tools empower users to unleash their creativity while ensuring that their designs are both functional and aesthetically pleasing.

    PatternMaker is a great software

    Date: Feb 11 2025
    Summary

    It's easy to learn and there is always a new feature to explore. You can grow with it. I currently design custom patterns with it. It has formed a large part of my business. It as given me an economic leverage. Parametric software are pretty expensive but Macrogen by PatternMaker allows you to design parametric designs at less than four hundred dollars. That is remarkable. PatternMaker 7.5 is pretty good for pattern making. I can design and grade patterns. I create my designs as macros and just upload the clients' measurements to get the design in their measurements. It gives me very fast custom patterns. Now I also sell my macros to the public.

    Positive

    PatternMaker is a great CAD software. It has several levels that allows you to opt in at your budget and build up as you go. I started with professional studio and now use the grading studio. I also design garment patterns with Macrogen by PatternMaker. Its versatile and flexible for you. You can design from the scratch or work from predesigned templates.

    Negative

    I would like a few more features added like an auto save. Sometimes I lose my work.
