If you wish to pay by check, e-check etc., then you need to be a member of paypal which is free.

    You will be able to download each file and/or access the redirection URLs individually.
  • What's your refund policy for PATTERNS?
    Due to the nature of this product, all sales are final.
  • Why do you have two shopping cart checkouts?
    It was easier to make two shopping carts, one for tangible items and one for PDF patterns. This way I didn't have to re-ender everything, which takes 2 full days to get everything perfect; and even then I find mistakes along the way.

    In the future I only be selling PDF patters and will remove the other shopping cart.
