    When will the patterns be available? I’m interested in the butterfly. 🙁

    Is there a downloadable pattern for the mixer cover? I see your response below. What is this if there are no patterns? Not sure why this is even on here or how we can "check out" the projects? I thought craftsy taught you sewing projects. I am interested in sewing for the kitchen. Where can I find these instructions on the site?
