It's the third quilt down the red with the snowmen.
Thanks!

I can understand that it takes a lot of work for the designer but you could always be your own designer. If you are like most of us you will have a bookcase full of magazines with pattern sheet. If you look through them I'd bet you could design your own quilt. Then again you may be happy to pay $40.00 for the pattern. Just a thought.

I have seen printed panels with snowmen similar to that., not as cute as some of those blocks. Don't remember where. I go in every quilt shop I can squeak my way into from here to PA and beyond. Google appliqued snowmen blocks.

I'm doing the block of the month of 'Merry, Merry Snowmen' right now. My friend on this board just finished it. I also bought the completed quilt to finish. The block of the month is lazer cut!!!

Thank you crafterrn1 for the information on how patterns are priced. I have a friend who also developed patterns, and was surprised at how pricey the process is to get them ready to market.
If I see something that I really like that is more pricey than I put it on my wish list. My kids are always looking for ideas for me for gifts. Usually when they ask me, I can't think of anything. Now, I just make a copy of my wish list for them, and we are all happy. Or, when I save money via coupons, etc., I put that money aside, for things I might want that may seem too expensive in my mind to spend on myself.
If you really like it, then if you are financially able, buy it. Make more than one, give as gifts, or make and donate for charitable raffle to help justify the cost.

I know many will say it is the price of doing business and the price should be lower. I challenge you to design a pattern and get it printed. It is not as easy as it seems. I like Bunny Hill designs and feel her prices and patterns are spot on. Glad we could find the pattern for you! Enjoy the Day! Luann
