Better Homes & Gardens is Here!

I finally received an email yesterday saying the American magazine Better Homes and Gardens 'Holiday Craft' was on sale, so I can finally reveal the project I have made which is featured within! It is in a similar style to the advent calendar in my book 'Christmas Story'. I hope you like it. I have also included a pic of the front cover of the mag, so you know which one the project is in.

Did you hear my gasp all the way in Australia? I saw this magazine in the craft supply store and totally dismissed it without even a second glance. Now I have to go back and get it... I just LOOOOOVE that pear tree! WOW! You've outdone yourself, yet again! Thanks for sharing...and for reminding me it's not good to judge a book by its cover!

I can't wait to go pick it up! That design is adorable!

Hi Annie
I just picked up this magazine yesterday. I have already picked out fabrics and I can't wait to get started on your design. Not only did it make it to the USA...but here in Canada too.

Hey Annie! What a cute advent calendar, although your birdie on top looks like he's been into the 'Christmas Cheer'! Tee! Hee! Hee! I also love the Santa on the cover of the book - he looks like a cross between Santa and one of the elves! Don't think I'm ready to think about Christmas just yet - still lots of birthdays to cross off the list before I start the Christmas rounds - GROAN!! Happy stitching! Bear Hugs!

Hey Annie, Congrats on another great Aussie design. I love that mag and try to get it when it comes out here in Aus. It always has lots of great projects in it.Well done again.

[Sue-Anne]

I just love your project. I already have your Christmas book but have to make this also. Will you be releasing a pattern here in Aus - I may not be able to get a copy of the magazine from where I live. regards Sue-Anne

[Wendy Walters]

I love your project. Do you have a fabric kit for the advent calender? I love the colours you have chosen.
Thanks, Wendy.

Hi Annie,
Do you know if anyone stocks this mag in Tassie or where I can order it from?

[Meredith]

Hi Anni, just LOVE this project, also have your Christmas book, but am hoping and hoping I can get a copy of the magazine here in Armidale. Would also love a kit if you are going to have them!
Best wishes, Meredith

I'm off to find that magazine. Love your little project.

[Debbie Cameron]

I found this magazine last night but when I saw the pattern, I thought to myself "I wonder if this pattern is already in the 'A Christmas Story' book that I own", so I put the magazine back. (nope) Now I have to go back and buy the magazine. It will make a wonderfule gift for my quilt group's Christmas gift swap.

Hi Anni
I am on holidays and am in New York today and passed a newsagent and bought the magazine. Yours is by far the nicest project in it. I was excited to see it. I will be bringing it back to Australia with me.

[angie]

I Think it's lovely! Congratulations.

[Delwyn Ellis]

Hi Annie,

[Amy R]

Hi Anni - This very project has broght me to your website! I will return again. Just wondering tho, do you stock the hanger for this project? Or, can you point me (and others) toward the supplier? (Or did I miss this information in the article or on your site?) Thanks! Amy, South Lyon, Michigan USA

[PatchworkPottery]

Oh! What a beautiful Christmas quilt stitchery! I think it is the most delightful design I have ever seen! Too bad I missed the issue... I will have to see if I can get my hands on one :o) I think your blog is wonderful and I am so excited to have discovered you!
