This site is all about connecting you with forgotten treasures. I've spent years collecting patterns, so I now have many duplicates of them all. Because of a recent move, I have found myself faced with the challenge of wading through boxes and boxes of these duplicates. There are only one or two of each pattern book available, but they add up quickly.
All the pattern books are like new, and if not, any "damage" will be spelled out on each product information page before you buy.
My goal is not to make a profit so much as to make room! I am selling these at the minimum amount for me to pay for the time I've put into this site. Hopefully you'll find my little "business" site easy to use and full of goodies.
Enjoy the discounts and all the stitching fervor when you receive your pattern books!
Cheers!

1. Money order:
If you pay by money order, there are only two drawbacks. One is having to wait until I receive your payment. The other is trusting the postal service with your funds. Otherwise, this is a convenient and easy solution.
You must not use the Buy button on the order pages if you want to pay by money order. You must email me the product information so I can manually remove it from my database. Using this method runs the risk of having someone else claim your item before you get a chance. However, once I receive your email, I will notify you that I received it and send you the information you need to send me a money order for the item(s) you want. Once I receive your money order, I will mail you the items you requested.
2. PayPal:
If you want PayPal, all you have to do is sign up for your free account. This method is convenient as well. The only drawback here is having to go through the trouble of signing up.
When you sign up (it's free), all you do is either add your bank account number to your profile, or add a credit card. When your account is verified by PayPal (I never see your information) you will receive a notification to your email address. Then, you can pay me using PayPal's options of either a direct payment or a credit card payment. It's that easy.
*Why I don't accept personal checks:
If I receive a check and it happens to bounce, we are both faced with nasty service charges. I don't know how well you manage your money (frankly, it's none of my business), so I just want to make sure we are all happy with as little hassle as possible in this endeavor.
Availability:
These pattern books, as I mentioned earlier, are duplicates of ones I have. This means each one is in small quantities and I may run out of one you particularly want. I am sorry if this happens, but you must claim what you want as soon as it catches your eye!
Shipping:
I have to tack on a charge for shipping each package to you, the customer. For PayPal users, shipping will be calculated automatically for your order.
If you pay by money order, I am adding a rough estimate of the shipping cost in so you don't have to send me two money orders.
Please visit the site given below for the current U.S.P.S. shipping rates. Please note, the average weight of a package of 5 patterns is 1 lb, 6 oz. That means the cost of the average package is $4.60.
As for shipping and order service, I cannot guarantee your patterns be mailed in a certain time frame. I am sorry for the inconvenience this may cause, but if I reply to you that your order will ship, you can check back with me if you don't receive it in a few days. You may cancel your order if a month has gone by and you still have not heard from me. You can, however, request speedy delivery with appropriate payment when you do hear from me.
