I don't subscribe either, but I saw it on the shelves in Wal-Mart this morning. I recognized the Easter set immediately as I've been eyeing it for some time trying to decide if I want to get started on Easter thing early! It must be the newest edition because I didn't see this one last weeked.

It is the March/April issue and when you get to the website the cover is right there. How Very Exciting for you Jami and David!!!
Congratulations:congrats:

Blessings to you,

Thanks Becca. I found it already too. Very cute. YAY! GO JAMI!

Ok ~ Those of you that do subscribe to that magazine? Is that a good one?

Yes, I was wondering the same thing, if it is worth subscribing to? I just haven't found any embroidery magazines that screamed at me. I'm probably going to go pick this one up!

Thanks for the congrats!!! It was a very happy surprise to see them on the cover. Annette, the ever-so-amazing, editor always does top notch articles. It's my favorite embroidery magazine!!!

There's also another project in that same issue done by Pauline Richards using our designs. It's the cute birthday banner. Pauline is the editor of Total Embellishment newsletter, but does freelance writing too. She's marvelous.

Thanks again, ladies for the congrats!!!

I do not receive this magazine either and am waiting for someone to tell us if it is worth it. Hello out there...........

Thank you Jami for the info, I posted my "Hello out there" and there was your post. Sounds like a magazine to subscribe to.

One more round of applause from me, too, Jami. Way to go! I'm going to check it out on their website right away. I'm big on having magazines and catalogs in my hot little hands, though, so I may have to find a "real" copy, too!

Jami Johnson
02-13-2008, 04:37 PM
IMHO, this one is THE best! Annette is a class act and puts together a wonderful issue each time. The projects are practical and have easy to follow instructions. The magazine is published by CK Media, same company who does Sew News, Creating Keepsakes, etc. so you know it's good!!

Don't just take my word for it, though, get a subscription and see for yourself!! :o

YES I DO !!! I just did not get this issue yet!!!!

I subscribed from when it first came out!

Congrats! That's just as good as "the cover of The Rolling Stone". Sorry couldn't resist the music moment. It must be fun watching all your hard work pay off. I love this site.

For those of you that do subscribe to this magazine, did you know you can download printable indexes that give a list of every article title from every year on their website? That's really great so you can print it and then scan quickly over that sheet for something you remember seeing but not which month it was in rather than pulling out every issue to search for it. Click here (http://www.cmemag.com/artindex.htm)if you didn't know this. That's really great.

I am going to subscribe now too. It's too bad we won't have our subscription start with this months issue to get the one with Embroidables on it.

Becca
02-14-2008, 04:26 PM
Thank you for the site Vicki. I am going to JoAnns to pick up a copy of this months. Also I will be subscribing. Is there a website with great deals on magazine subscriptions???

02-14-2008, 06:01 PM
I was at JoAnns today and peeked at it because I did not get it in the mail yet.

This issue is awesome!

The Projects with Embroidables are the BEST !!!!!

I hope mine comes soon!!!!!!

Ok, I just broke down and subscribed. I think in a few days I'll call to see if the subscription will start with this one, or the next issue so I know if I need to go buy this one.

I did not say that! I do love you, but not enough to give up my CME magazine... sorry!
Now I am going to watch my mailbox like a hulk!

I think someone else pitched a tent by my mailbox.... I still did not get this issue yet!!! I called on FridayMarch 7 and Feb 29, it was mailed on the 29.
Someone is enjoying my issue that did not make it the first time!!!!!
Oh well.

Hopefully they sent it first class this time and it's just slow. I'm assuming you had been getting it before so they had the correct address. I've had that happen before with another magazine and they sent the replacement out first class rather than at their normal magazine rates where they take a lot longer. :(

StitchCrazy... THANKS for the offer to share your copy!
Thats what I like about this board. Everyone is SEW CARING for each other.
Vicki... I checked all the mail too, the kids do put it on the table (when they get it) I get it most often.

I will keep waiting! If not I will call again or go to JoAnns on Tues and pick up a copy with my 40% off coupon!

THANKS!

Well, if that doesn't work out, feel free to take me up on my offer. ;) Whatever you do, don't miss it. I enjoyed every single page!

This has been the nicest group of people I've ever met, so I was just extending the same kindness that I know all of you already have or would have extended to me! ;)

oooh ooh and *I* got my very first issue today but it's the Jan/Feb issue. I got my bill shortly after I filled the info out to start and then *someone who shall remain nameless* lost that bill so we had to wait for another to come. We got that yesterday and the magazine today. :D
