CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

Cute patterns, but SAME ones as "In Stitches" -
I purchased Amy Butler's "In Stitches" and loved it. So I found this "Sew it Kit" and bought it thinking it would have more fun patterns. Out of the 15 patterns 11 were the exact same ones as the book! They should describe these items a bit better to save the hassle of buying the same thing twice!!! Put new patterns out there!!!

don't waste your money -
I went ahead and bought this because I love Amy Butler's designs. It was disappointing at best to open the shrink wrap to find out that there aren't many new patterns, and the fabric was very drab compared to the rest of her collection. Save your money; don't buy this kit.

Not for a crafter -
Although I love Amy Butler's fabric line and other books, this kit was disappointing. The projects were fairly simple, and I found the cards to be pretty gimmicky. That being said, it would make a lovely gift for someone who is just getting interested in sewing.

Not what I expected -
If you already have the In Stitches book then you will be dissapointed with this kit. The pattern unless one or two are all in the book and the fabric that comes with the kit is just for a little project only.

Repeat Patterns -
I was very excited to be getting another set of Amy Butler patterns, but was extremely dissapointed to find that only 3 of the patterns are new. All the others are available in Amy Butler's In Stitches: More Than 25 Simple and Stylish Sewing Projects. Highly recommend purchasing "In Stitches" instead of this little kit. The only advantage that this kit provides is that the patterns are on small cards that you can take with you if you are going to a sewing group get together instead of carrying a book.
