JJ........It saddens me to read your note.....why does this happen? My God-like upbringing tells me it is a greed of a few........I do like the "non-traditional" look of these quilts and soty of off the wall, I like the mathematical aspect of them...I have twwo paterns...Housetop and Lazy' Gal......I have sewen the first together....I was told by Windham the individual patterns are no longer available and one must buy the "entire kit" from them....what control!! Thanks so much for your note..I apppreciate your time and comments....betsy lou
