I got mine last week, too. Seems like they have a different layout or something, the last couple months. It looks nicer. And they have had more cute stuff lately.

It seems to me that they are using alot of patterns that can be found online for free anymore or old ones that have been in magazines.

I decided to purchase the digital editions. So I had mine over a week ago. Sure saves me space if it's on the computer instead of stacking up in my room! Yikes!

I received mine and some of the projects looked like a throwback to the fifties. It had some nice kids' stuff, though.

Really? What ones? (I was born in '69...)

I liked the Camouflage Gear set, I was *thinking* about making it for our six year old. (I haven't told him that, though~~ OR showed him it.) At least the tent and sleeping bag. The entrelac bag is cute. Although I still don't know how to do entrelac.

I got mine last week. I love it but just did look at it again to see if I saw anything that reminded me of the 50's. The only thing that reminded me of the 50's was the clothespin bag. I was born in 1951 but I seem to remember seeing pictures of clothespin bags from the 30's and 40's. Although I believe those were sewn ones rather than crochet ones.

I haven't received mine yet!

I got mine a few days ago. I did find a couple of things that I liked but not as much as I usually do. It must be difficult to come up with new patterns that appeal to so many crocheters.

The magazine does have a new editor so her style may be different from what we've come to expect. I'm just going to wait and see what is in the future issues before I renew my subscription.

got mine today, nothing in it I will do!!

I got mine last week.

I like the skirt and the dress for my daughter. My daughter wants the skirt in pinks.

I like the tent too, in pink for my daughter's Barbies or Ken dolls.

Like the shawl cardigans for her, too.

 

There are a few other things I like and a few I don't like but I don't see it as old fashioned really nor do I think many of the patterns are free on the internet unless I'm missing them.

Thank you. I designed the Party-Girl Skirt in this issue. Please let me know if you make the skirt for your little girl. I'd love to see it.

I love the portable pinks bedspread. I want to make one, but no one to give it too. I showed my daughter the pattern and she said she did not want one.

That reminds me I need to get on that. LOL
