Hi Nancy, you said something that is very intresting concering the NASB translation.
I is a single Person designation, who was "Alone", and "By Himself". and this one person, "I", is the LORD, who is Father. keep that in Mind. because you're onto something.
in the NASB 1995, it says this. Isaiah 44:24 "Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, and the one who formed you from the womb, "I, the LORD, am the maker of all things, Stretching out the heavens by Myself And spreading out the earth all alone", here the (NASB), makes it very clear as the KJV, that the LORD was "ALL ALONE", (meaning no one else present), which raise some intresting question. because in the NASB 1995, it states this in John 1:3 "All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being".
well that means, "APART", he didn't go through anyone else, because in Isaiah 44:24, he was "ALL ALONE". which now puts the person(s) in prospective. for if the person in Isaiah 44:24 was "Alone", and "By Himself", then the Person in John 1:3 is the same one person who was alone, and by HIMSELF....... but, we have a problem. the person in John 1:3, Jesus the Son said, "HE", God the Father made all things, per Matthews 19:4. well now do we have a contridiction? I say NO. because the person in John 1:3 is the same one person in Isaial 44:24 who was alone. well this is the ECHAD, or the plurality problem that many have, that needs to be answered.
look over this post and see what I'm saying. for the I seen this in the NASB a long time ago.

That was a GOOD assessment of the verse. but what many are forgetting is John 1:1c, "and the Word was God", not two Gods, but the same one God, as you said, who is ONE PERSON, (the CREATOR). now to confirm this, Isaiah 44:24 "Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;" here, it is the Father, who is LORD, all caps, who "MADE ALL THINGS".In the first verse you quoted, I see first of all, that Jesus IS God and without Jesus, nothing at all was made. So, as God is "one", and Jesus is credited right in this verse as creating all that is. So, it is not only "God" (even though Christ IS God) that is credited for creation but also Christ, who comes from God.
