Disney Craft Magazine

[JonetteA]

Has anyone seen one? Is it worth the money? I live in the US and want to know what it is like before I purchase. We don't ever get any of the cute stuff here.

I hadn't heard of this mag, so I've just looked on google and found out that the first issue comes out in April. It seems to be a cross stitch mag. with some paper craft.

I'll look out for it.

I'd really appreciate you looking at it and letting me know! Thanks Libby!

 

[JonetteA]

just wondering if anyone has seen this yet.

I'll have a look for you today Jonette!

 

[Dimplenose]

I had a look in the local newsagent but they don't have it. I'll have another look on Tuesday as they seem to get deliveries then.

They didn't have any in our local Sainsbury's (big supermarket) I'm afraid

If you guys could keep a lookout I would really appreciate it! In the US we don't really have OUTSTANDING needlework magazines....esp ones that deal with Disney.

Will do Jonette!

My daughter (DisneyRGB) has subscribed to it - will let you know what she thinks when the first edition arrives.

Diberry, Just curious if your daughter has seen the Disney Craft magazine yet.

It hasn't arrived yet - I'll let you know when it does.

Hi Jonette! I am diberry's daughter and got the first issue of the Disney Crafts magazine today! I've only had a quick look but will tell you what I can remember.

On the front there is a free Winnie the Pooh card to make. There are about 4 different cross-stitch patterns to try (2 of the dwarves, Winnie the Pooh and Buzz Lightyear I think). These are just the patterns, no thread or aida but it tells you what colours you need. There is stuff to make a couple of gift tag and bag sets - one is Belle and the other is Bambi. There are also instructions to make a rug of Monsters Inc. There may be other things I can't remember now.

Hope this gives you an idea! It is worth buying in my opinion but I appreciate it will cost you more in postage in the US.

I've finally found this magazine. It cost £3.99 and I don't think it's very good value for money. There are a few cross stitich charts along with some paper crafting ideas. The Pooh card kit that comes with it is quite sweet but nothing special. The magazine contains a lot of adverts and three of the larger articles are either reviews or previews of products on sale.
I might buy another edition if one of the items in it interests me, but I won't be buying it regularly.
