Charlottechicken Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Just seen an advert for this magazine, thought I would pop the details on here for anyone interested. first issue is 99p and thereafter it looks like £2.50 Sew and Stitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 The best 99p I have ever spent. It kept me busy all afternoon yesterday & I've almost completed the first square. I love the quilt it makes eventually, so will be getting this each week. My argument being that I don't drink & hubby has his wine & beer each week! I'm not going for the subscription though, I have asked my local shop to order it me each week. Mainly because the subscription sends you 4 issues together, so can get them earlier from the shop. Plus they want to charge you £5 + for binders when they feel necessary! Cheeky! The gifts are not tempting enough for me, plus I would sooner give my village shop the business.

redbug Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Think it's a weekly price of £3.99 too much for me might have mag. weekly if it is £2.50. But will get the first one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LolaLayla Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Got it. I love getting the 99p first issue craft or cookery magazines. I just have to stay strong and not buy any more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer Jane Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 I got it too. It is worth the 99p just for the freebies, but I won't buy future issues. Also trying to cut down the number of craft mags I buy each month as I am spending a small fortune. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooh sorry I thought I'd found the price for further issues, but it does look like issue 2 might be £2.50? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redbug Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Got issue 1. Wonder if any good freebies with issue 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 I also have issue 1 Looks like issue 2 has three skeins of the same embroidery thread, but in green, yellow and white, another piece of fabric and two different fancy ribbons. Not sure if I will bother yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LolaLayla Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 No. Managed to hold myself back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 I picked up my copy of issue 3 today. Although it sometimes looks like you don't get much, it's designed so you use up every little s"Ooops, word censored!" of fabric, thread, bondaweb over the weeks. I really want to make the quilt that's why I buy it. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted October 2, 2013 Author Share Posted October 2, 2013 We will, of course, be expecting photos when the quilt is finished, Emma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
