But I really like them. They use a sturdier, white paper. I don’t think it’s recycled like the others but it’s so much easier to cut and layout. And they’re color coded so they’re really easy to read.
But they are $8 a pop, so I’m building a wish list that I can mull over for awhile and make sure the pattern is a long-time standard before I buy it. This is what I have so far:
I would love to hear from you if you have made any of these and whether you would give them a thumbs up or down.

I bought 3036 2 weeks ago, I made the lower scoop neck and love it! After cutting out the pattern and the fabric, it only took me 1 hr to sew! I used a double row of topstitch around the neck and I like how it looks. I see your question was from sometime ago now, so you may have already made a decision already.

I made 2917 a few weeks ago. Unfortunaetly mine didn’t fit because I have animpossible body shape–a small bust and big ass hips. But, for all that my pattern didn’t turn out well, the directions are easy to follow, and it’s a very pretty blouse. I wold recommend it. I might even try mine again and raise the hemline and add side slits so it provides more movement.
