I love the patterns from Reconstructing History. I own another Japanese pattern and in the future may buy more when I can afford to spend the $$.
I gave only 4 stars because the price is outrageous! In the future it may be better to find a cheaper way to print the patterns as to save the consumer some money. I was lucky to have some extra $$ when I needed to purchase this pattern for an event, however, I can't dish out that much all the time to get their patterns.
