The shape and dimensions of the template pattern are modified by remote input of the person and may also be modified by an algorithm, the modified pattern is saved and aggregated with other saved modified patterns and applied to a fabric with other blanks and cut using computer-controlled apparatus. The blanks for the design are then selected and despatched to the end user.
