I've taught a lot of quilting classes, I'm surprised your instructor would go forward with a class and pattern that had so many mistakes ... not to mention costing $24 ! That just doesn't make for a good experience for students. Sounds like she worked to fix all the booboos and save the class ... Kudos to her !
But the designer ? Shame on HER for not responding ... and likely NOT the first time she's ever heard of her pattern mistakes either !
