Yes. I made this proeject using Boutique this year: >
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.

The very first thing I made were pants from Click & Sew. It was a disaster,
*MY* fault. I tried to measure myself and measurements were off. Then actually followed the directs, I had a friend measure me. I only had to do a tiny bit of tweaking to fit the waist...which still fit a whole lot better than any pattern I'd ever used and most RTW. I was sold. I have All three big programs for women, men and children. I love this program. Just read the tutorials and directions......and follow them ;) IMO Wild Ginger is about the next best invention since chocolate.Val
Thanks. Do we get the see the final model?

Thanks you! That is exactly what I was looking at - the pants! Click and Sew, off to order that right now.

I will add my voice to the enthusiastic supporters! I have a very unconventional-shaped figure and it only took me two tries to get a perfectly-fitting sloper -- since I have a ton of bust tissue on a very small rib cage, I had to change the shoulder-to-center-waist measurement, and that solved the problem.
The last four pictures are of the complete suit. I don't have pictures of it on the customer.
