Love this project. when I click the link for your Fancy Swirls it says there is no items found for "ATG40129" Is this pack still available? As a pack with the various sizes or do I have to buy individuals? I found your other projects with this design and your link for the various sizes but still no go.

Sorry I didn't see this until now. I don't receive notification of comments to my pictures.
Thank you for your interest in my swirls. They are still available. I have repaired the link in my description. It will take you to the complete set. You can also buy a set of a single swirl in all the sizes or a set of all the swirls for a particular hoop size. They are available here:
