No, I wouldn't buy the pattern. In fact, I can't imagine a quilt kit at $75.00.

I wouldn't buy it if the pattern is not included. Isn't a "kit" supposed to be everything you need to make that project?

Am I wrong on this?? I think a total of $100.00 for the quilt is a good price. I have looked at kits at Keepsake and other sites and they are all very expensive..well over $100.00. In fact I don't think you can find one for that price.

That is just plain wrong in my opinion. I can see not giving a whole book with the kit, but the pattern should be included no matter what the price of the kit. Take care.

I am glad you posted this Never having bought a kit I would have just assumed the pattern was with it, If you dont get the pattern what makes it a kit. I have looked at some kits thinking I would buy one and then find there are a couple of fabrics in it that I don't really like If the pattern has to be bought separately then I can just put together my own collection of fabrics

Be careful when buying quilt kits from magazines. I did not know that they substitue different fabrics from what you see in the picture. Was not happy - called the quilt shop out West and was told to "read the fine print". Last time I will order from a magazine. They said it was not their fault, it was mine. So when buying kits, support your local quilt shop. At least you can see the fabric.

Why call it a kit if it does't have the pattern. For $75 I would think they would include it. :thumbdown:

Perhaps the book would be available at your local library.
