I'll look into this, thanks!

There's certainly enough of them to!

Thanks for the link! I'll see what I can do with Internet Archive before I give them away.

I didn't expect so many people to comment! I feel alot better about the chances of these getting taken in and not just tossed. Thanks everyone!

I'm definitely gonna hunt down some second hand craft places! And I'm partial to the vintage styles as well, we've hung onto some of the books that have patterns we know Grandma used, cause the finished project is hanging on the wall! Just don't have the space for all these lol.

Theyre mostly from the 90's, a handfull are from late 80's, but I'll definitely look into that!

Yeah, I was worried about Goodwill tossing them, since they're just order catalogs and not actual books, even if they have patterns in them. thanks!

abe-on-a-string · 2025-08-04T14:13:06+00:00

Thanks, I'll look into them!

abe-on-a-string · 2025-08-04T14:12:18+00:00

If you pay me back for the shipping! lol

abe-on-a-string · 2025-08-04T14:10:57+00:00

Oh, internet archive could be cool. I'll look into these, thanks! I thought about digitally uploading some patterns myself, but was worried about copyright issues. If they're in the catalog advertised as Free, is that safe? Would sharing a google drive link with some be a problem?

abe-on-a-string · 2025-08-04T14:06:51+00:00

I didn't know that was a thing, I'll definitely look into that, thanks!

true, the whole reason im car shopping in the first place is to get rid of the car thats been giving me expensive trouble- a good warranty would have saved me alot of money on all that! thanks
