  1. Strange. If they released in summer 2008, why don’t they have their blog up yet? The mag is pretty cool, though. We need one of these for the east coast!

  2. I saw this on another blog just this week, too. I first got excited but then most of the content didn’t impress me…

  3. Let me clarify, when I say it didn’t impress me – I liked it okay, but I didn’t feel like I just HAD to get my hands on the next issue. The poor quality of the tutorial pictures on page 36 was a major turn-off, for example.

  4. Thanks Miss Celie! I like the independent look and feel of the mag and I can’t wait to read the article on Britex Fabrics (my absolute hands-down favorite fabric store, followed by G Street).

  5. I have a sub to this one and it’s due anytime for the next issue. I’ve been waiting to get it before posting on it.

    I do have a t-shirt from them, and they’re nice people, so I’m going to give it a fair shake before really having an opinion.

  6. I like the intent, it’s different in that it’s not really as much technique as I think we’re used to seeing. That’s probably good for new sewists. It’s a little ‘alt’ for me. But, I’m such a square somedays that it doesn’t surprise me šŸ™‚

  9. I felt the same way!! Summer 2008? That’s why when I posted on PR that maybe it was just new to me! So glad I wasn’t the only one who missed it. I agree, it’s a little too “hip” for me but I still enjoyed the read.

  10. This is too funny, a friend just emailed me with a link to this earlier today! I’m really glad that this is out there, I don’t think there could be too many sewing magazines; but I’m another that isn’t going to rush out for it. It’s a little too “alt” for me too……now (says the girl who was out at a goth club on the weekend and dancing in a cage, but anyway). Back when I was 22 I would’ve probably been all over it, but I’m getting a little too couture now (it had been about a year since the last foray to the goth club cage, I’m mostly grown out of it now).

    Like I said, though, I’m glad it’s out there. Glad that there is a move to get more of ’em while they’re young (teens – early 20s) – which is the demographic I think this will most appeal to. Good on ’em!!!

  11. Forgot to add that I was also over on the Burda site and found your picture on the front page, in your skirt……………..coollllllll!
