IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Thanks to the new GPSR laws you must now be a Site Member to access the store at Reginapdesigns.com and make a purchase, FREE or Paid. The only way I can find to continue offering FREE to view patterns on my Blog while still having a store front is to make my shop private to only members and screen each member by Country of residence before approving them. Customers from Northern Ireland & European Union Countries need not apply. These new GPSR laws do not allow me to sell digital downloads to any residents of these countries, so they will not be approved for membership. Sorry for the inconvenience, and please be patient with me as I try to comply with these new laws and still maintain my small business.
