... but let me tell you, printing them on wide-format paper at the local print shop is NOT CHEAP! It's one thing to buy a pattern for $15. And a completely different thing to print it for $60. And printing on regular letter paper and taping the design together is... NOT EASY EITHER!

Yeah, I've pretty much gone to about 6 patterns that I traced, and use as blocks. The PDF taping thing is the worst! But if you really want to make your brain hurt, try tracing from the multi-pattern pages that come with the Japanese pattern books. Boy howdy.
