Thoughtful Thinking Thursday #135 - How Much Does a Garment Pattern Really Cost?

I bought this pattern last summer at a discount

and it still cost around $10!

For me, that's outrageous!

That's because when I used to make clothing a lot,

patterns were more like $3.

Anyway, I look for patterns that make several pieces of clothing like this one.

BECAUSE, each time I use the pattern,

the cost of the pattern goes down.

So far I have made 4 tank tops, 1 pair of short pants, 

a jacket

 

& this pair of long pants last week.

So $10 divided by 7 = $1.43.

The pattern for each garment now costs $1.43!

This is one reason I preserve a multi size pattern

so any size can be used.
