Review: Nice pattern sent with proper packaging! - Nice sewing pattern, but the most important part was that the shipper packaged it properly. The pattern arrived with no bends, no wrinkles, and no damage!
Review: Exactly as described - I tried finding this pattern at my local store, but they were all out of stock. The price was good on this one, comparable to the stores. I made this for my mom, and she just loved it. The pattern itself was just as promised, all the instructions, pieces, etc. I would say there are a few things I would change about the pattern if I made it again, but overall, it was good.
