I am using pictures for my templates to make them the right size for the trees hopefully I do a good job for all. with all the exercising I have been doing this past year to get out of my Cardio Rehab I didn’t do much sewing and am way behind on gift making so am doing this instead for this year.

  4. I have also tried multiple times to download the Sew Easy Tips and have been unable to do so. Yes, I have checked my spam folder and there is nothing there, nor is there anything in my inbox. The email in my registration is my best, but you can also delete the 1964 and change the other to yahoo.com. Please get back to me as soon as possible. I have two graduation quilts to make and need to get going on them. Thank!

  5. It is now Dec. 29, and I still have heard nothing from Quilting Daily about the free download of the Fons & Porter’s free download of them Sew Easy Lessons. My original comment was Oct. 23, 2020, and the response says “Your comment is awaiting moderation.” ReallY? How long does it take to figure this out? I have now tried again to download the Sew Easy Lessons, and once again, I receive no email that provides the free download. How sad. This company does not build much trust.

    1. I am so sorry for the delay, I am not sure how I missed your comment from October! We’ve reached out to our email provider (they send the email after the form is filled out) to look into this issue. While they address a fix for this issue, I’d love to get you a copy of this right away. Is the email address you used in your account the best one to send it to?

We’ve contacted our email provider (they are the ones that deliver the email after you submit the form), but while the address a fix I’d like to get you this PDF ASAP. Is the email address you used with this comment the best one to reach you at?

    1. Hello!
      I wanted to check to se if you were still having issues. After you enter your email in the form, the information on your download should come directly to that email (you may want to check your spam or promotions folder if it’s not in your inbox). Let me know if that doesn’t work.

  7. I have tried at least four times to get my free download of the fonts in Porter sew easy document and I haven’t been able to get it. Every time I try to get this you want me to sign up for something or sign up again for another email. You certainly don’t make this easy at all!
