"In 'How to sew a quilt", #3, sew which direction? #5, again which direction or side? #12,which way, how much? #15, Huh? That "explanation" was not informative to me and I've done miles of sewing. How is this for the beginner? Where are the pictures? At least there should be one picture of what your description will make, the way you are directing. So confusing."

"Very sad that all the patterns are free, and yet all the comments below are just complaints about what cannot be found or not given as patterns, do we realise the state of our world today when we cannot just be and enjoy?"
