If anyone has clicked on my blog link in the last couple of days you’ve seen some big changes going on. I’m very pleased to report that the redesign is going extremely well.

I’ve been hung up for the last day or so in fixing up the “free” page where I have all the patterns available for free downloads, but I’ve gotten that completely straightened out. I’m using a great plugin called download monitor. It took me a day or so to figure out that I needed it, but once I found it, I was able to set up all the downloads in no time at all. Setting up the table on that page was a bit of a nightmare though, even though I was just copying the code from the other page.

I think I have the bones of the site set up and now I just have to spend some time on data entry. That shouldn’t take overly long. It’s just tedious. I’ve reclassified and recategorized many of the patterns to make them easier to find. The monthly system made sense before when I was releasing new patterns all the time and sticking to monthly themes. But now I’ve gotten most of the seasonal themes covered, and the new patterns I’m designing do not fit into that system. This new way will be much better.

I hope that in just another few days (or a week at most) I’ll have the whole site switched over. I’m so excited!
