Cash in hand, but no place to spend it :-) This page features sewing patterns that members want to buy -- if only they could find one. If the request says Original or Reproduction, they'd also be interested in a reproduction if one is available. So while you're out there browsing, stay on the lookout for these and let us know if you spot one!
