My apologies for being so tardy on the blog front. I had a nasty little head cold all last week which really knocked the stuffing out of me. I've never had so many colds in one year, should have gotten stuck into the vitamin C early on.....
So anyway, I found out about this
English mag through the
Prints Charming blog and the website allowed for pre-ordering using Paypal. The opportunity seemed too good to refuse. So I was naturally expecting a Prints Charming item in the issue, and was very impressed to see it made the front cover. Although more goodies were to be had, a the flick of a page....
Alicia Paulson is amazing, terribly creative and writes a beautiful
blog about life, pets and crafty stuff. So it was a lovely surprise to see her featured also.

Prints Charming goodness.
This little scamp is a great idea, designed to make use of left over fabric scraps - perfect!
I think it's wonderful that they're showcasing crafty talent from all over the world. My only hope is that this magazine will continue to live up to the standard it has set, and I look forward to seeing what the next issue will be like.

ReplyDeleteYa know, I have been getting a bit bored lately... was wondering what I could do... thanks for reminding me that I have a lovely new sewing machine just waiting to be used! that magazine looks fab.
ReplyDeleteHmmm wonder if we can even get it here? If not, think I'll ask Wanna (Nannette) to send me one! Hope you are feeling better too!
ReplyDeleteHi Jen! I'm sorry to read that you have been suffering. I was flattened by hayfever last week which developed complications. I can see again now and have been battling a brokendown computer. Sheesh!
ReplyDeleteYour magazine looks great and the Prints Charming projects are adorable. The hearts and bird almost look like those fancy iced cookies.
Nice production values in the magazine. The little kitty is so cute. Did you see Claudie in the Christmas issue of Patchwork & Stitching?
Cheers, Ann
Syre do, we were there in March this year. Our first time to The Nut and 3rd to Tassie. Bought the burl in a shop where the owner looks like Meg Ryan. You're right about the spring weather being weird. I think the coast could be like the mountains, changeable but not as severe. Enjoy the rest of the day. Dzintra
ReplyDeleteHi Jen,
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a great magazine.
And what they have done with the Prints Charming... fantastic! Gives me some really great ideas. *Grin*.
Being sick is no fun, glad to hear you are feeling better. Do what it takes to build yourself up! A little sewing, a little sitting in front of your fireplace... you decide. *giggle*
