Lynda Jean, please don't assume that a jig tied by a new tier is any less worthy than any other. Looks are less important than most think. I have been fishing with flies and jigs that I've tied for 45+ years, and can promise you that what we think looks good, doesn't mean the fish agree. Most times when a particular pattern starts to work for us, we don't change to a fresh, un-fished jig. You keep fishing that same jig fish after fish, and usually the more fish caught, you notice that the jig gets to looking pretty ratty, but starts to fish even better, with only a percentage of its original looks still intact.
I have a large collection of jigs and flies that were retired after an exceptional day of fishing, and are they are stuck into a fabric lampshade next to my tying bench. Each have a wonderful memory to share. None of them look like they did when they were taken out of the vise. And certainly no one would have appreciated getting one in a swap, but the fish on those days told me that looks didn't matter. Now I tie by looking at my proven patterns and the volume of material that the fish wanted, and rarely do they look like the original.
You had a great point about having the pattern included with the jig. Keep tying
If your jigs will catch a fish, then they are as good as they need to be
