**MakeFromThis** is an AI-powered web application that helps makers and DIY enthusiasts turn leftover materials into practical cutting patterns instead of throwing them away

Users upload a photograph of a fabric remnant or another flat material, and MakeFromThis automatically detects its usable outline using computer vision. After calibrating the physical dimensions, users describe what they want to create and receive cutting suggestions powered by **Meta Muse Spark Open**, accessed through Baseten

Rather than generating ideas that may be physically impossible, MakeFromThis combines AI recommendations with a deterministic geometry engine built using Python, OpenCV, and Shapely. Every proposed cutting layout is checked for containment, spacing, and overlapping pieces before being presented to the user

The application visualizes the cutting arrangement directly on the original photograph, calculates material utilization, and exports a dimensioned SVG pattern for printing or further editing

The current prototype supports square and rectangular cutting pieces, with automatic outline detection, AI-assisted recommendations, physical calibration, verified nesting, and SVG export

**Our goal is to make creative reuse more accessible by connecting multimodal AI understanding with practical, mathematically verified results — turning forgotten scraps into new possibilities**
