does that count as productivity?

I was getting antsy that I haven't made a lot of progress on things for Gettysburg (Unless a knitted petticoat, knitted muff, and one and a half sontags count)...so today when Rob needed the laptop for actual work things I decided to start thinking about it...I bought the laughing moon wrapper pattern LAST time we went in 2013 and never so much as opened it. I dug it out (please be impressed I found it). While I'm sure this is going to be a great pattern my first impressions of the instructions are not stellar. You pull out the instructions and they're printed on a giant sheet of pattern paper with instructions to cut them apart if you don't like working with a piece of 6 feet instructions...I carefully cut along the lines and now have a pile of thin paper (not as heavy as printer paper) that are all folded in awkward places and different directions and NOT normal sizes of paper..the bottom row of pages are like an inch longer!

I had to iron them all to get them flat enough to be able to staple together. Such a pain in the rear. I get that it's probably easier and more cost effective to them to just use one type of paper and order it all printed together, but for the expensive cost this pattern was I would really have rather not spent the first hour of working on it just making the instructions readable.
