🧵 Pattern Projector: Complete Walkthrough (Free & Open Source Tool for Sewing!)

In this video, I’ll walk you through everything you need to know about using Pattern Projector, a free and open-source tool for projecting sewing patterns. Whether you’re new to projecting or want to make your setup smoother, this guide covers it all—from installing the tool to doing alterations on the fly.

I’m a stay-at-home parent who loves to sew, and I originally built Pattern Projector to help with my own projects. It’s grown into a tool that’s helping sewists around the world, and I’m thrilled to share it with you—totally free.
