One drawback, for me, is that I like to see patterns before I buy them. There's no indication of what kind of designs these will be, whether they're paper-pieced, traditional, or applique, whether they will introduce new techniques... And it is $94!! That's about $8/pattern ($8x12 months=$96). Buying books with patterns that you know you like would be much less expensive. I suppose the value is probably there, with all the individual videos, but I just don't see any reason to participate, unless you really enjoy watching Eleanor.
