Have you seen these https://jalie.com/collections/latest-sewing-patterns?_kx=8JvT4tuq_lv92g-AYTHXFNMMSMTBrPN5tlIZUWS5hOK142fJni6pkj4Kd3WwFm-4.RrSdk4   
I have used several of their top patterns and find them really good, they also work well as block style patterns I have often adapted them to make dresses etc. I have only tried 1 pants pattern and that didn’t work too well for me, Style Arc pants fit better for me.

I haven’t really looked at the new ones yet  but I will when I get back from Ma in laws. as if I need more patterns???

I love Jalie Patterns but the majority of mine have been for dance & activewear. None of the new collection jumps out for my needs this time but I have had their city coat pattern for a couple of years and not got around to it so as I've got a fabric shop opportunity coming up shortly, perhaps I should note down the quantities for that.

A timely reminder, thank you.  :)
Hopefully back more regularly! Ballroom sewing may be permanently paused but bag making is the current focus.

I have made a handful of Jalie's. They're OK but I personally hate their zillion sizes thing. I find it very difficult to follow the lines for a particular size.  Some of the newer patterns let you hi-light limited sizes but then it limits one to printing many pages which is a another negative.  If I could limit the sizes and do copy shop I might actually use them again.  But at the moment I'm not interested.

Funny I hate multi size usually but their newer ones are very clearly printed in multi colour and I find them easy, I also often grade between sizes so that helps, I hate copying Burda magazine patterns. @mudcat they do  now do copy shop pdf patterns too.

This is the newer one I am thing of trying https://jalie.com/products/romy-sweater-and-tunic-sewing-pattern  plus this one for my son https://jalie.com/products/4132-martin-lounge-pants-and-boxer-shorts?variant=40101164679352

Thanks @Celia  I didn't realize they'd added copy shop.  I couldn't figure out if those can be set to print only one size or not.  If so I'd be tempted to try them again.
