I wanted to know if anyone has used Neue Mode patterns. How are they? Do they have good fits, usually? Are there a set of instructions in English?

Hi-
I have only used neue mode once and it was a children's pattern, but here is what I know. Yes, they do have English instructions. Instructions are okay but not extremely detailed and I remember they sometimes translate a word wrong.You do have to add your own seam allowances and hem allowance. Everything is in CM, not inches. Sizing was not a problem for the jumpsuit I made, fits similar to Burda. I love the styles of their patterns, it's just all the tracing and adding SA's that keep me from using them (I'm pretty slow already!)
