We saved the pdf in a different version that should work better for people who aren't fully updated or are having other trouble. If you haven't been able to get the free eBook to download properly, please try again now - hopefully the new file will resolve any issues.

I've tried six or seven times now to download this e-book. I updated my Adobe Reader to the latest version, and I still get a blank page when I try to download the book. Other e-books have downloaded seamlessly. I got a pop-up browser window asking me if I wanted to open the files with Adobe, or save them. With this book, I don't get a choice. Clicking on the link takes me to what looks like the start of a PDF page, but it never populates. I'm running Firefox (fully updated) on a Windows 7 PC. Help?

For those having problems getting the file to download try switching to an Internet Explorer (IE) browser.  I couldn't get it to work in Firefox but when I used an Internet Explorer browser it worked.

Also looking forward to downloading the new ebook, but page will not load. The page simply freezes with a black stripe at the bottom of the page.

I get a message that says "this file could corrupt my computer". Now as I read what others are saying that errors show up and/or they can't download it, as well as access denied, makes me think that you can't get the 5 free download pattrens liked advertised when you sign up. hmmmm a gimmick just to get t you to sign up??  Just e-mail me the 5 without  me having to download them.........

I was able to download the ebook with no problems.  These are very cute and useful patterns. 

I have one comment / suggestion on the wrist pincushion.  In order to avoid sticking yourself, it would be a good idea to put something on the inside bottom that pins cannot easily penetrate.  A piece of flexible plastic, e.g. frozen dinner packaging, plastic file folder, etc. would work.
