Dear everyone,
I am checking to see if other people have experienced any problems with delivery of patterns from the above website. I ordered on 30th September and received an order confirmation. Money was taken from my account. After two weeks I emailed them to see what the status of the order was, and received a one line email "We'll check". I've heard nothing else. I have been emailing daily and also tried calling the number on the receipt, but it has an odd message saying that it isn't a registered number.

Does anyone have any advice. I ordered from UK.
Thanks!
Susan

I ordered 2 patterns from them a few weeks ago. I received them--maybe not in a timely manner, as I would from Amazon, but I could wait, so it was no big deal. I didn't need to contact them--but your problem sounds like a big deal. Nice to know ahead of time, tho I am sorry it happened to you.

Thank you Jocelyn. I just want to go ahead and sew the new patterns! I would just like them to email me to reassure me!!!

Best wishes,
Susan

I've ordered from them a number of times (from South Africa) and only once waited longer than expected for international mail (and then the problem was with the local customs and excise). In general I can recommend them.

I've just downloaded patterns from them with no problems.

The only time I ordered from them wasn't a happy experience. The pattern was never sent, they responded to no emails and only refunded the cost when I said that I would be filing a complaint. Still no email. Other people may have success with them but they are permanently off my list.

I've ordered several non-downloadable patterns from them; only one wasn't in stock and they let me know about two weeks later. Come to find out, it was OOP. I've been pretty happy with them.

The owner, MargotG (Margot with a 't') is a member here at pr. You could pm her. I have usually found her very responsive.

I have always been happy with them, love that they have so many Indie pattern designers available.

Thank you everyone for your comments. It reassures me that there must be a "blip". I shall work out how to pm Margo. Best wishes, susan
