I know that no one has an answer for this problem, but I'm still annoyed.
Quilting patterns are published with errors that are quickly detected by anyone who purchases the pattern and attempts to follow it. The answer from the publisher/author is 'oh, yes. we'll fix it in the next print run.' Well, excuse me. I paid good money for something from THIS print run.
And further, I know they say that they've tested the patterns prior to printing. But having seen some of the errors, I just don't believe that.
I understand that errors can occur. But these designers are playing with the big girls when they publish books and patterns. They need to take more responsibility for the product.
This is not aimed at any one book or pattern. In my five years of making store samples and 42 years (EE GADS!) I've seen lots of mistakes that should have never appeared.
