Know before usingCommunity members add and quality-control the records, so confirm sizing, measurements, fabric suggestions, format, availability, errata, license, and purchase terms with the designer or publisher. Adding an entry to a stash does not provide the pattern files. Saved searches and private PDF storage are paid Plus features, and a listing or review does not establish pattern accuracy or fit.The Spanish-language directory spans many crafts and contact records can age; a listing is not proof of current availability, material origin, intellectual-property permission, capacity, price, delivery, labor conditions, or project fit, and transactions remain between the parties.The workflow is not a contract or quality certification; local legal duties and technical review may still apply.
