I'd say the same about Fons and Porter. The kits in the magazine and web site are pricier than others and I understand from other posts that you don't get the pattern but must also buy the magazine. This makes it less attractive. I agree that in most cases, there is not often anything new in them.But, that said, I still fiind myself drawn to check out the new ideas.
