What is an average price for a Kwik-Sew pattern?

I just paid almost $9 for pattern 3149, kids pants and shirt. I'm in sticker shock. I've never paid that much for a pattern.

I think they range from $8-$12. I know, I about died the first time I bought one. I have several now, though.

So, the price was worth it to you, at least?

The price was worth it to me b/c I'm not that experienced, and those patterns are very easy to follow and don't have lots of pieces.

i buy my KS patterns locally and i pay full price. I bought from a co-op once and while the price of the patterns was more reasonable from there, i was overcharged for shipping and that was a real turn off. It ends up being the same price for me to buy them here and i don't have to wait for the mailman to come for 2 weeks. i also like to see the patterns in person, up close, since a few i bought from the co-op were not quite what i was looking for.

to me, it's worth the price since everything fits so nicely and i don't waste any fabric.
