Agi gave us a wonderful review of an on-line mag so I thought it would be great to have it as our first posting.
I have only seen two issues so far, plus the free downloadable one (without the charts) - and I love it. It is a very distinguishable style, though, so it may not appeal to everyone. Unlike some other magazines that tend to try and serve many different tastes at the same time.
I am so sorry that I cannot name this style to help you but the sample issue should give you a good idea. http://www.thegiftofstitching.com.au/sample.php" target="_blank
There is a really interesting calendar design that I want to do (you can see it in the sample), they give you the patterns in four consequitive issues, some nice samplers and many small designs good for needlecases, biscornus, cards etc.
What I really like is that they give you very detailed, step by step instructions on finishing, and they do other counted stitches, too, not only cross stitch. In the October issue they have, for example, a piece on shading with blackwork, and a whole page of different stitches diagrams.
It is also good, to me at least, that they publish articles, interviews with designers etc, so there are pages to READ, as well, not only pictures and charts. I like this.
So far I am really happy that I ordered it, especially with that really cheap discount price I got - but I think the whole price ($ 18) wouldn't have been too much for a whole year.
By the way, the discount I got was only because in May I downloaded their sample issue - and in September they offered me a discount (half price) subscription.
