The International Craft Magazine Stand
Personally, I just love looking through magazines for ideas, don’t you?
The following pdfs do not include the patterns, they are simply the table of contents and designs contained within each issue. These magazines are still protected under copyright and you will need to secure your own copy for access to the articles and patterns within. You may peruse these when considering purchasing the magazines from a third party, or for inspirational design ideas.
Now you will know what you’re getting next time you buy a back issue of a magazine!
Coming Soon : Patrones, Burda, Filatura Di Crosa, Rowan, Lapidary Journal, Art Jewelry, etc…
