I finally got my copy of Sew Hip! Sew Hip is a new UK sewing magazine that I’ve been involved with recently.
This issue #2 and it has an interview in it with *yours truly* plus Heidi Kenney of My Paper Crane. (I’d have told you about it sooner but I just got my copy!) Issue #3 is already out and has an interview with Hillary Lang of Wee Wonderfuls.
In addition to crafter interviews there are book reviews, sewing pattern reviews and projects. One thing I think is super cool is that the magazine also has a pull out pattern sheet in the back at actual size! In a magazine!
Issue #4, coming out in a week or so, has a special *new* project from me as well. When I get my copies from the publisher I will be giving away a copy of issue #2 and #4 here on the blog to a lucky US reader (since I’m not sure how available these are to folks in the US). I’ll let you know more about that next month.
Meanwhile, thanks to those that have purchased my Lil’ Sweetheart Purse PDF. I had a lot of fun with it and I hope you’ll send me photos of any that you make. My Cupcake Tapemeasure Kits sold out so quickly in my last shop update that I know some of you were disappointed that you missed them. I’m thinking about offering that as a PDF pattern for purchase since I can’t seem to make enough kits. Hmmm, good idea or not so much? Maybe I’ll try them out next week with another shop update. I do have a few other things to list that weren’t ready last time. 🙂
ok, ’nuff for now…happy weekend!
Happy weekend! I’ll keep an eye out for that magazine.
I’m so glad the last shop update went well! Yes, I think some pdf patterns would be great if you can’t seem to make enough of them. You are always so clever with these tutorials!
I received that issue recently too, and read your article. Very nice feature! I just love that magazine, and end up reading it from cover to cover with a day or two of receiving each new issue. So full of great projects and product tips!
wow! pull out pattern sheet in a magazine… that is cool! 🙂
congrats on the publications 🙂
I’m pretty bummed because I subscribe to this and I still have not received issue 2 or 3. I think my fabric will be highlighted in one or two issues, too. Must write to them!
.pdf patterns are a GOOD idea. 🙂
Congrats on the magazine article-how cool is that ?!?! The magazine looks so fun too! have a wonderful weekend!~Smiles~Tam!
I saw this magazine at Barnes and Nobels …I have both copies! I’m totally in love with it and the ideas are all so creative and inspirations. I highly recommend this magazine! It’s surely a winner!
I haven’t seen this magazine yet but it sounds like something I could spend hours looking over. I guess I need to check out my Barnes and Noble to see if they have it.
Congrats on your publications of late.
Kindly throw my name in the hat!
