Question
Crochet Garden
Hi everyone...
I have no idea if this is even in the right forum... but here it goes.. I am sure a mod can move my post elsewhere if this is the wrong place..
For all those of you who design.. how do you find testers for your items? When you find a tester- what is it you have them look for? Do you always use the same testers? If you plan to sell a pattern what are the most important things you ask the testers to look for?
DESIGNERS:
My questions are because I have recently began writing down my patterns and such and have a few free ones posted. Anyway I have been on a designing frenzy.. and I had a tester for one of my patterns and she was phenomenal... I know she makes things for her daughter and other things and would hate to "tie her down" with another pattern to test so I am wondering if there is a standard or general way of getting your patterns up to par. Any hints or tips from you designers of what you do to get a pattern in tip top shape? How do you choose a tester? What do you look for in a tester? Am i taking this way too seriously?? lol
BUYERS:
I would hate for someone to purchase something, then be totally disastisfied. You as a buyer.. what do you look for when purchasing an original pattern from someone? What do you value and what would completely turn you off? Have you ever bought a pattern and it turned out to be a regret? If so why?
Thank you much everyone in advance... I hope this turns out to be an informative thread not only for myself but others too!
