I love that a pattern that I like offers the items that I need to complete the project. The only thing is that sometimes I cannot get the items that I need because they sell out too fast.

I don't like seeing my choices on only half of my screen. Completing the other half of the screen is annoying. When looking for something specific it takes me forever. Have to find what category there in. But I'm in my 70's, if that's why.

I found it confusing with all the "upgrade options. I hope I am getting a complete kits which I do not have to buy crystals or clasps to complete my projects. I am hoping the add one only give me more options for my kits. Potomac beads patterns are really beautiful so fingers crossed I will like the kits subscription.
