Yeah I was going to rant about this. It's really frustrating. Yesterday I was looking at my old orders to make sure I didn't buy duplicates which is something I have a tendency to do. Every single pattern said "not available" which made me suspicious and then I saw a Tilton pattern that looked familiar. Then about an hour later I read the PR blog post about it.
Frankly, it's stupid and a sign of someone who doesn't understand the sewing community.
