| Know before using | A generated pattern is not independent fit evidence or a production-ready graded block. The result still depends on accurate measurements, the selected design and options, ease assumptions, fabric behavior, construction, and representative test garments. An account stores saved patterns and measurement sets, so review the platform's privacy terms before retaining personal measurements. | Association membership is not a capacity, quality, labor-condition, certificate, availability, or ownership audit; factory-level due diligence remains necessary. |

| What the source establishes | FreeSewing's official documentation says the browser editor drafts a selected design in real time from a measurement set rather than scaling or grading a standard-size pattern. Users can adjust design options and export the generated result, including as PDF; saving the pattern to an account is optional and is used to revisit it later. | BGMEA's public general-member list displayed 4,275 records with registration numbers, company names, contacts, and detail pages when checked. |
