F&P Quilt Kits
#21
I did just recently order a kit for a Moda bakeshop pattern. The quilt shop sent all the fabric and no instructions. I was a bit peeved at first, but after a bit of checking I found it was Moda that would not let them distribute copies of the pattern. They do send you an email with the link to the Moda page with the pattern. The quilt shop is forgiven but I am a little peeved with Moda - if it's a "free" pattern online, why can't the shops who sell the kits give it away? They obviously pay Moda for the fabric. Go figure.

Seems like a lot of companies are not as user friendly as they used to be. With the price of all things quilting, you'd think that they would bend over backward to keep a customer and spread good news about them instead of the problems they caused. Makes no sense to me.

That sucks! But if you see a kit you really want, i would call and talk to someone to confirm the magazine is not backordered or out of print before buying. Or put a post to the board to see if anyone has the magazine. I know the Half Price Books by me has alot of older quilt magazines.

Well, I've already used the fabric in another quilt. My point is with paying THAT MUCH MONEY, I should not have to go and search down a copy of the pattern.
As I said, it's a "grit your teeth" cheap trick marketing. I make it a point to NOT buy things marked FONS AN PORTER anymore. They just copy other peoples merchandise, put their name on it, and sell it for more bucks. I may get slapped for this, but this reminds me a lot of Martha Stewart.
