I actually have a wide-format scanner but I'm too lazy to use it - the photo method seems faster for me. For digitizing paper patterns I take photographs of the pattern pieces on a grid board and then "trace" them in CAD.
I use CLO3D regularly in my workflow, but not for digitizing and grading. I'm really interested in learning computer software based patterning, with a near goal of starting a home sewist pattern company based around teaching custom fitting techniques which I really see the home sewing community lacking in.ĭoes anyone have insight or critiques of CLO3D before I jump into it? I haven't been able to find anyone giving rounded reviews of the software, and I'm a little concerned that it's too good to be true based off of how inexpensive and advanced it looks compared to leading softwares like Gerber and Optitex.Įdit: clarifying that I want to use CLO3D to digitize my existing patterns and to grade them, so that I can format them into PDFs (then write up instructions etc) as opposed to using it as a platform where I would be selling the patterns. I have recently graduated with a Fashion Design BFA where my school went through a multi year transition from Gerber to Optitex, and based on how my classes lined up I was unable to learn either softwares in school.
