I received my latest patterns today Amy! Thank you so much! (& I completely understand the economics of it all – I still try to use Australian sites as much as possible – and as much as my credit card allows!)

Hi Sandi – usual price here is between $25 & $27AU (+ P/P), so you can see why I was excited by Amy’s sale prices! (Although sad too, as she is no longer going to be selling O+S patterns – they’re not that widely available here.)

Thanks for that list Liesl! I’ll be sure to check out some of them.
