I also suggest coloring books. I just bought a good one at a dollar store. A really great Santa and sleigh I am going to do for next year.

I have not had a problem with the charming stations website but you can also join their yahoo group. All of the snowmen are in the files section of the group and they send the new ones weekly. I rarely get other messages from this group. Usually just announcements of new patterns. I really love the snowmen and have about 17 of them done waiting to be put in a quilt or two. ;-)

Thanks so much for your input. Will add to my bucket list
