The monthly shipments are 6 coordinated fat quarters, a pattern using the featured fabric and high-quality fabrics made from 100% cotton. This for $21.99 each plus postage and processing.
I have no idea what the postage and processing would be.
Would appreciate any comments about this offer.

Thanks

You do get a pattern but again I like to see if beforehand and decide if I would use it. Plus you have to consider the amount of postage and handling. Unless I was building a stash or did not have places to shop in person, I would pass it up. Is it something you can cancel at any time or are you committed to a certain length of time. I do not belong to this fabric club so perhaps someone will chime in that is a member.

I hope I explained this in a understandable way. Some times the fingers and brain don' connect correctly when I type. LOL
