Hi my friend!

Thank you for the support and friendship over all these many many years! (26+ but whose counting?)

My patterns are for your personal use only. If several of you want to make my pattern, each of you needs to download your own copy. The website will be here for awhile, but not forever.

Watch my past videos, including my last video with a look back at things I’ve done at YouTube/PatSloan

2025 Issues

– As you know 2025 was a dumpster fire for me.  I had my website company close and NOT move us to another location. I had 2 weeks to move my entire website to a new system, my newsletter company closed, another business service I use had a massive change, and I was in Montana to help my mom move. Mom was diagnosed with terminal cancer and I spent 6 months helping her until she died at the end of 2025. (you can watch my tribute video to my beautiful, smart, and wonderful mom at https://youtu.be/8uPlZEuZ7e8?si=WJ65yVdN7-LiXoAg )

Since I have been in business for 26 years, all of it online, there is a massive amount of data that did not get moved over in the 2 weeks I had to do it. I do not have plans to add things back. You can try the way back machine as sometimes the pages are still there. Unfortunately I had many website names over the 26 years and ran multiple blogs. That means I have a massive amount of data across several places and not everything was saved.

–If you encounter an ERROR PAGE – If you get a 404 page or any other type of error, use the SEARCH feature at the top right of my website. You can also check the wayback machine at https://web.archive.org/web/20250000000000*/ilovetomakequilts.com to find content that didn’t transfer during the move. Alternatively, you can search Google for ‘Pat Sloan’ followed by whatever you are looking for, that often will get you to an item.

OUT OF PRINT

– If you can not find something, then it is out of print. Like your favorite ice cream flavor that they don’t make anymore, it is just not available. The company won’t just produce one container of it for you, you have to find a new flavor. That is the way it is for my out of print Patterns, books and fabric lines. I own them, but if they are out of print, then you just need to find another project to do.
