Spring 1991:Vol. #1, Issue #16
Page Count: 82
COVER: "1930's Whirligig"(Effie Miller's collection)
Notes: Theme for this issue was "Heritage Quilts of the 20's & 30's"; This issue had a couple of contradictions on the ToC page - 1) stamped with "PREMIERE ISSUE", but says it is Number 16 of volume 1 right above it, and 2) Subtitled "Quilter's Quarterly How To Magazine" but says it is to be published bimonthly in the small print...

SUMMARY: I only have the one sample issue at this point, and it was a bit confusing as to exactly when it started(sometime in 1991), what the periodicity was going to be, and how the premiere issue could also be Number #16 of Volume 1. That aside, I like themed issues, and my sample issue stuck to its theme really well and presented lots of historical perspective with its pattern offerings. I'm starting to think that Helen Squire ran her article in ALL the quilting magazines, but it's early days and I could be wrong...



HOW TO MAKE THIS MAGAZINE CATALOG SEARCHABLE:
METHOD ONE(downside is it takes some effort and time):
1. Open a blank page in your favorite word processing program.
2. Right click and "SELECT ALL"
3. Right click and "COPY"
4. "PASTE" or CTRL"V" what you copied into the blank page(it could take a while depending on the size of the page)
5. Use the search function as you normally would. Try to stick to only one word, since authors will sometimes use their middle initial, then not, change names, etc.
6. Trash the blank page when you're done.

METHOD TWO(downside is you have to wade through a lot of HTML code to read the entries):
1. Right click and "VIEW SOURCE". This will bring up a second window that will give you a behind-the-stage look at my coding along with the entries. There is a search function on source pages. Use it as you would the search function for a word processor(see METHOD 1). Close the Source page when you're done.
