The last four pictures are of the complete suit. I don't have pictures
of it on the customer.

I use the Wild Ginger. There is a learning curve, and when you first
make basic patterns (referred to as slopers) there is some
experimentation required to get the fit EXACTLY as you want it. I
haven't yet got my trousers to fit precisely in my new, larger size, but
even straight from the software with no tweaking they were better than
any paper pattern. Recently, I have been making myself a number of tops
in armhole princess style, which Ihaven't been able to do in commercial
patterns for I dunnamany years. Also, the tech support is incredible.
Out of this world.
