I ordered a one issue to see if I would like to subscribe to this magazine. I liked the designs but the sizes were mostly too small for me.It would be nice if there was a version in English. M.W. op 31-01-2012

ik vond het blad leuk om uit te proberen al had ik er wel wat meer van verwacht als ik heel eerlijk ben,ik heb mijn abonnement inmiddels ook opgezegd. wendy op 18-11-2011

Apart from the fact I live in Australia and cannot understand Spanish I recently made a dress and jacket from one of the patterns. It turned out really nice. The pattern was clearly marked with A,B,C etc and was reasonably easy to follow.
My complaint is the poor and inconsistent delivery. I recevied the October issue two weeks ago but have still NOT RECEIVED THE AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER ISSUES. Can this please be rectified. Also is it possible to have the body measurements in English?
Kind regards,
Margie Butler.

De bezorging en de afhandeling van het abonement is prima. Er waren wat opstartproblmen maar dat is tot tevredenheid opgelost. De inhoud wordt de laatste tijd wat minder interessant. Ik merk ook dat ik voor mezelf steeds minder patronen gebruik. Kan natuurlijk met mijn (veranderende) smaak te maken hebben. Het blad is voor de liefhebber zeer aan te bevelen.

I have been receiving Patrones now for almost a year and love the magazine. The Patrones magazines has a excellent mixture of patterns, and I have made several from a couple of issues.
For a while I was not receiving the issues regularly. Global Magazines has been excellent at resolving the shipping issues that I've had. As of the last couple of months the magazines have been arriving on schedule. Global Magazines has been very customer oriented and have resolved all of my shipping issues in an extremely timely manner.
Global Magazines has been excellent to work with. I'm looking forward to continuing my subscription thru them.
If not for the shipping issues I would Cass Sewell op 12-07-2011

I know and use Patrones already for a few years.The patterns fits very well and are young and modern.Very trendy!But to be honest I found it better a few years ago. Its also a pity we get it a month to late. Myriam Smolders op 19-02-2011

Delivery/ Customer Service: Great, I found Global magazines to be very service oriented with quick response time and good customer relations. The magazine was packed well and arrived approximately in 4-6 month to Canada.
I like Patrones. The patterns are just in time. I would be very happy if the sewing instruction can be in English. I think Patrones pattern better size wise then Burda.
Overall, I would highly recommend this magazine to everyone who love to sew and for tailors

I had to wait nearly a year to get the first Patrones magazine after my subscription with Global Magazines (from october 2009 to august 2010). The problem has been with Patrones, the people at Global Magazines have been very nice and helpful. Now the magazines arrive on time.
Patrones changed completely; the magazine is thiner (the number of patterns has been reduced) and there are no more designer patterns (the touch of class has completely gone). That's very regrettable, as I considered this magazine always as something special. Martine, Luxembourg op 04-02-2011

I used to love the Patrones issues a few years ago. But the designs are not what they used to be anymore. There are not much designer patterns anymore. At the beginning of my subscription there were many difficulties with delivery, it took a few months and many emails to get resolved, after that I got the Patrones regular. But I would not subscribe again. Michaela van Ham op 04-02-2011

This magazine has 40-60 designs each month. Very much cutting edge fashion. I have found at least 2-3 styles each month to sew. I use the regular and also the plus size patterns, which are just as cute as their regular size patterns. I have found their separate plus size issue (not included in the subscription) to be dowdy and full of repeat patterns. They don't have the top-drawer designers any more, but still loads of fashionable wearable designs. This magazine is different than Burda in that every design is completely different, whereas Burda tends to have several minor variations on each design. Jane Estes op 08-01-2011

Delivery/ Customer Service: Awesome, I found Global magazines to be very service oriented with quick response time and good customer relations. The magazine was packed well and arrived quickly (delivery was to Australia).
Contents: I used to love Patrones for the designer/couture patterns and the number of patterns (100+) but it seems now that they only have a few patterns each month and most are not designer labels. They also seem to waste a fair amount of space on plus size patterns which annoys me because they actually have a separate plus size edition. I have also found that the fit seems to vary from pattern to pattern and therefore fitting and muslin making/mocks are required.

I had heard good things about Patrones magazine on various sewing forums I use so decided to order a trial copy. I found it to be very like Burda or Knip Mode in format, although there are probably less patterns. I have not made anything up out of this magazine yet but found the instructions simple (and I have very little Spanish) and the styling to be very fashion forward. The delivery was very fast. Overall, I would highly recommend this magazine. KJL op 14-12-2010

I like Patrones. The patterns are just in time. I would be very happy if the sewing instruction can be in English. I think Patrones pattern are the Best in time. But I mean that the time from the publication till I receive the Magazin is too long, about 4 seems. Kirsten Frandsen op 10-12-2010

I really miss the haute couture patterns of the great labels. That's the exual reason I wanted it. But because of the better explanations (I'm dutch) , I still kind of like it. Hopefully there will come some more advanced clothing patterns.

Patrones is erg goed magazine met een zeer eigentijds aanbond van patronen met een uitstekende pasvorm.
Het raderblad is erg overzichtelijk en duidelijk.
Het blad wordt door mij en de cursisten al vele jaren met plezier gebruikt modeschool couture marianne boslooper op 08-10-2010

Ik vind het een erg goed magazine, de patronen zijn heel goed van pasvorm, het is alleen erg jammer dat het hier in Holland niet meer te verkrijgen is zover ik weet.
Ik zou het prettig vinden als ik bij u per nummer kon bestellen, of alleen de 4 patrones extra die elk jaar uitkomen.
