I didn't know anyone in Australia was designing and selling sewing patterns. I definitely want to try these and I see a pant pattern I'd like. As for postage, A$12 to the USA sounds about right to me. Postage between our countries is high given the distance. When I purchase the other way (from the US) this is approx. what I pay. The more you buy the more economical it becomes. Having said this I do think A$10 within Australia is steep. I can understand the price for the card stock patterns but not the paper ones. ------ Belinda. Melbourne, Australia http://sew-4-fun.blogspot.com/

Actual postage is probably $3.80, so $2 p&h is acceptable. Thanks RocknRoll!! ------ chris Melbourne

Thanks Chris for letting me know. Yes $5.80 sounds spot on. Glad to know it isn't $10. I'm sitting here making my ever growing list. So what did you get? ------ Belinda.

I thought I'd try both a knit and a woven pattern to test the fit, something needing limited alterations and quick to sew as my sewing time is very limited at the moment. ------ chris Melbourne

I'm looking at the m'ments and the size 10 seems closest to my m'ments, plus size 10 is my RTW size. I wish they were multi-size. ETA: I forgot to say I like the two patterns you got. Then again I like all their patterns. It's hard to narrow down my choice. -- Edited on 11/13/10 9:04 PM -- ------ Belinda. Melbourne, Australia http://sew-4-fun.blogspot.com/

Yes, this is what appeals to me. This plus it sounds like the patterns may be drafted by people in the industry. Hopefully the same people who are drafting our RTW. I actually really like Australian RTW clothes. With a few tweaks I find the fit really good. While I can find similar styles from the Big4 pattern companies, the fit is different from our RTW. I've had a long held dream of trying on RTW clothing, then being able to walk to the counter and ask to buy the pattern. I'm hoping this is a step in that direction. ------ Belinda.

This will make it difficult for many sewers who need multi sizing and are used to just switching between the lines. Nevertheless, the styles are really nice.
