I have a Mac OSX and can not download the pattern Land of the Free. Any way you could email me the pattern as a PDF? Although it says in the Blueprint that it is a PDF file, and it “looks” like it has downloaded onto my computer, when I try to open it, it still will not allow me to, saying “this file can not be opened as a PDF file”.
My husband served active duty for over 27 years in the Army and LOVE anything patriotic! I would like to someday make this quilt pattern in his memory.
If Land if the Free quilt pattern is supposed to be available, why can’t I get it? If blueprint is where it is found, then I guess I don’t know how to get anything from their site as my computer screen just goes white and never does anything — do they require a paid membership?
