SUMMARY: This is the hybrid of "Traditional Quiltworks" and "Quilting Today". I was very impressed with the first issue. The patterns were mostly traditional patchwork - but they showed you different color combinations and gave you quilting plots for quilting your top when it was done. That really worked for me. I also like that the cover wasn't just a tease - you always got the recipe for the cover quilt. I would love to know why this magazine failed - it certainly wasn't because of the quality.
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.
Anyone with more information about this publication, or has issues to donate or sell, can contact me through My Contact Page.
