Struggling

It won’t let me save my fabrics, I enter all the details I have about it and it has the save option greyed out

Response from developer

Sorry you are having trouble. Have you read the instructions website at https://sites.google.com/view/sew-help-me/ There are a few required fields, that if left blank, will not allow you to save. They have an asterisk next to them. If you still need help please email me at sewhelpmeapp@gmail.com There will be a simple explanation. Thousands of people are using the app without issue, including my wife who it was created for ! Kind regards

Love this App

This App is perfect for keeping a handy record of my fabrics and patterns all in one place. I plan to add new purchases as I buy them and I’ll add the rest of my stash gradually. Already, I have found 2 pdf patterns in my emails that I had completely forgotten about. I tried two other apps, but much preferred this one because it doesn’t have lots of features that I’m not going to use. I can see my fabrics, my patterns, my ideas and my projects all in one place , that’s all I need. And best feature of all was the very small one off payment - no subscription, yay 🙌

Too good to be true

Couldn’t believe my luck with this. I have tried several apps for my sewing craft but none quite suited my craft (involves fabric and patterns but not traditional dress-making, and not quilting). This is fantastic, especially being able to separate Ideas and Projects (Active and Completed) but being able to convert an idea to project really easily. Everything is so easy to input and link up - patterns to fabrics to projects and ideas. Really handy Notes features and Templates to save time. So glad I’ve found this, have deleted my other sewing apps I was using to keep track of my fabric and pattern inventory as this is a complete one stop shop.

Great sewing app

This app suits me and my style of record keeping which in the past I’ve never done!!
Thanks for the hard work in developing and maintaining this app

Thanks for taking time to review. Glad it’s proving useful for you 👍

Love this App!

Great app for fabric and pattern organisation. Great search tools and thoughtful inclusions. I appreciate the frequent updates which often add new and useful features.

Glad you finding the app useful. Thanks for taking the time to give a review. Happy Sewing !

Easy to use, does the trick.

Fast way to organize my patterns.

Wish some basic functionality existed

Wish some basic functionality existed like the ability to copy data from one record to another so when recording items purchased at the same time you don’t have to start from scratch for all the details like price or width and gsm, etc.

Response from developer

Thanks for your interest in my app. I’m not sure that I would describe the simultaneous purchase of multiple identical fabrics as a basic functionality 😁 But I will look to try to incorporate your suggestion in future updates. Happy Sewing EDIT Copy paste implementation in v5.6 👍

Great so far with one small thing to add (small for me maybe not developer)

I have spent time playing with every app for collecting my patterns that I can find. I was using sewing Kit HD but developers stopped supporting it about two+ years ago. With close to 1000 patterns I was reluctant to change. Now, I cannot even add photos to the old app unless I take up phone memory in my pictures to hold them first-did a test run. The only downside I have for all other apps-not being able to use the bar code to input pattern info. SKHD was able to do that. The only problem would be if a number had been reused and I had both in my cache. It has happened. I have been at this for over 30 years. If the 10 or so apps I have found that could work-this one is hands down-the easiest, and best. Thanks. ****** Update: finally bought the full version. However, I cannot get the patterns in the light version to update in the full version. I thought this was cloud based and should update-it will not.

There has been an iCloud sync issue recently which I believe has been fixed by Apple. Are you fully up to date on iOS 15.4.1 ? The Lite and full versions use the same database so should sync OK I’ve looked into barcode scanning but as far as I can tell it requires a subscription which is simply not viable for small volume app sales like this one. Kind regards

Even better.

This might be my favorite app of anything on my 3 iPads or iPhone. I’ve used several database and inventory app trying to corral my fabric but this is hands down everything I want. Unlike Cora this app works on all my mobile devices upstairs downstairs or at my kitchen or in store. Spouse is moving his extensive inventory of reproduction and antique vintage fabrics into this. Tags extend the usefulness from seasonal sewing, garment vs quilting vs home dec. The project and idea feature lets me quickly assess if I’m using materials purposely purchased for another project and weigh options, including whether I have enough and where to get more. (I put fabric sku in description) I haven’t spent much time tracking notions, but just wow. Love love it!
