Pack It in! 2.0

I wanted to post this almost in a rebuttal of another review. No, there are no pattern pieces in these patterns. In the instructions, you are told what size to cut each piece of the bag. Read the instructions and follow them step by step and the process will be easy. As for the add-on videos. Inside each pattern that has a video, there is a coupon code for the full $5 that you use when ordering the video, making it free.I've made dozens of By Annie bags, and from the very first, had no problems as long as I followed the instructions. As long as you have basic sewing skills, anyone should be able to make any of their bags. Not sure? There are several free patterns on the byannie.com website. Download them and try them out, get used to her system.

This is a couple of pages of confusing instructions. The isn't a pattern included. Every step tells you if your having trouble you can go to the "Need Help" video. And they even give you a coupon for five dollars of the video. So right off the bat they are telling you you won't understand the instructions and need to pay to watch the video.
