It's a publicly sold pattern, so I don't know why anyone would be getting bent out of shape about others selling or referring! If you design your own product and copyright it, then complain. But NOT with a pattern made by Simplicity!

Here is one of the two I bought for @ $50-60 (can't remember exact) from JenCar -- I love the Minky fabric -- it is SO soft, wish I had one in my size! (She let me pick my fabric and I know there was little profit margin after I picked the minky fabric!) The quality is also AWESOME!

(BTW I opened 1 thread today.....and it is a huff 'n puff thread. That's why I drop in so seldom these days.
NOTE~
We are actually talking about two different beds in this discussion. The one the OPer wanted to learn how to make and then the Cloud 9 bed.


Debra~this is what I was trying to say in the first place. The OPer said she purchased fabric for $30 and had NO IDEA how to make the bed she linked to her OP. What I was trying to say waaaaaay back on the first page was the for the amount of money spent ($30), needing to also buy a pattern($11), no idea how to make one and needing to ask a relative to help sew it I PERSONALLY WOULD JUST BUY ONE! Maybe I am lazy or that additional $20 or so is just worth it to pay another vendor~possibly even both. I then went on the say that I too had the pattern and felt it was not a beginner or simple pattern to attempt not knowing what you are doing. Somehow what I was originally trying to say has become twisted into huffing and puffing When someone else mentioned there were YT vendors it wasn't a DEMAND to purchase from them it was a suggestion. It wasn't until a link to Etsy was posted that I felt it was rude. IMO~if I didn't know what I was doing $30 seems to be a lot of money to possibly end up with a pile of nothing. IMO~I would rather put out $50 and actually know I would end up with a nice bed.

Separate Subject from the above post since somehow the two beds are being confused.
As for the GE participant who was given Cloud 9 bed and then stole the design~wow that is even lower than all that she did in this past GE! This bed DOES NOT have a pattern that can be purchased from Simplicity, McCalls, Butterrick, Vogue or any other pattern company. So YES THIS IS STEALING! STEALING FROM A RESCUE!
