CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This software provides users with a collection of sewing patterns but struggles on a couple of fronts, including stability. LEKO Sewing Patterns' interface occupies the entire screen, and though it's easy enough to navigate, it looks somewhat antiquated and amateurish. It comes preloaded with 40 designs from categories such as jackets, shirts, pants, and more. You can view a technical illustration of each design, and see a colorful drawing fitted on a model. Moreover, sewing instructions, the type of fabric needed, and design cuts are all included.
You'll find tools for editing patterns, but an error occurred while testing this feature. We like that all of the designs can be adjusted for one's own measurements, but the program uses only the metric system. Unfortunately, you won't be able to add your own creations, and the print option isn't available during the trial. While LEKO Sewing Patterns is relatively easy to use, its limited pickings and lack of stability prove to be disappointing.
