SUMMARY: Creative Ideas is currently a magazine put out by Lowe's - you know, the hardware/lumber/appliance superstore chain. So I guess it's not an arts-n-crafts magazine any more! I know this because I had intended to put a link in this review for those people who wanted to investigate getting a subscription. This annual is a supplement to the original Creative Ideas magazine published by the Better Homes and Gardens people, which I'll now have to research when they stopped publishing. It's a shame. If you really love rag dolls, this isn't a bad magazine to hunt down. It has a lot of different patterns and suggestions for personalizing them to your tastes. They are bound into the magazine, but none of them are on the fold at least. It is square bound, which means breaking the spine if you want a good photocopy of the patterns.
