I know what you're feeling !!! I ordered the panel, pattern and fabric for a "quick" quilt gift, Hoffman fabric Stonehenge fabric. The panel and directions didn't match. Fortunately I read my pattern several times and measure my fabric before I cut. I had to measure every piece before I cut anything. I went to my LQS yesterday and complained about the pattern and he said he had a problem too and called the designer. She told him that if he washed and dried ONLY the panel that the pattern would be fine !!!??????? He did and it was !!! Is this what we have to deal with ?? I'm sorry, be I have had soooo many patterns with mistakes in them lately I figure I could make up a pattern and make money too !!! It wouldn't be so bad if patterns weren't so expensive!!! The publishers need to proof read and know quilting before publishing a pattern.
