Just wanted to post a review of the new Crazy Quilt Magazine by Lisa P. Boni. As you know, Lisa took over the magazine and is now the new owner/editor/publisher and she did an amazing job on her Premier issue which is all about Sparkle!
Lisa's cover artist is Helen White with her Northern Canadian Winter block. Lovely color combo!
Also in this issue is a good article on photographing Crazy Quilts which I can tell you from my own experience, that it is a challenge!
Margreet De Reus shares her Crazy Quilt Clock and Betty Pillsbury's Once Upon A Time Mixed Media box is a beautiful addition to this issue.

Barbara Warner shares with us a pretty block called Aunt Lulu's Postcards.
Kelly Montgomery shares her Galactic Heros crazy quilt and Arlene White inspires us with her 12 Days Of Christmas Quilt.
Susan Elliot talks about glitter and Sparkle, Sparkle Little Fish by Linda Mussehl is a must see along with an nice idea for using up your left over threads pieces.

I love Crazy Quilts! My grandmother made so many. Her embroidery along the piecings was so lovely.
ReplyDeleteCan you provide a new link to Crazy Quilts Magazine? I used your link and it takes me to an adult website. Just wanted to make sure you were aware of this. But I still would love to know if and how I may subscribe to the magazine. It looks adorable. Thank you, Sandra @ALCHEMYDEE
