Phae, why don't you try downloading a demo? It shows you exactly what the program does except that you can't put your own measurements in or print patterns, but otherwise you see the full functionality of the program (minus what may be in the most recent updates). That should answer a lot of your questions, and then you can ask the rest here.

Please understand that I'm not trying to give you a hard time. I really want to know!



I am not Phae and I have never played her on television, but I downloaded the demo -- very interesting, even though it uses the hated Adobe Reader a lot. I have searched for a pattern for a "model's coat" for years - they used to be quite common, but have seemingly vanished from the face of the earth. From what I have seen so far, I think I could make a pattern from PMB. Another, unrelated, question that crossed my feeble mind is, what about patterns for knits? I don't see that mentioned, but I have not exhausted the demo yet, either.
