First post as editor.... (even saying it makes me giddy!!) lol

I didnt realise a lot of people didnt even know about this magazine...It is so full of inspiration from the USA with more UK girls making appearances but you cant be in it if you dont submit, same with the new Crochet Trends so im giving a shout out. I really want to see these magazines be a huge success with lots of homegrown talent :)

Do you know someone who you think would be perfect to feature in either magazines? We are starting Crochet Trends from scratch so come on girls lets fill this magazine with what we all want to see!!

Issue one will be in the shops 21st July 2010...

Issue 2 will be 16th September and with the first of 3 trial issues of Crochet trends with it!

I will find out exactly where they will be available and post to let you know asap :)

email me debbie.nicholas(at)pizzazzmedia.co.uk :)

  3. Exciting times Debbie, must admit I've never seen a copy but that doesn't mean a lot I only go for stamping mags and even then not very often. I'll look out for a copy for the future, I can always do with learning a trick or technique or two.
    I hope you're going to have fun in your new post, Good Luck,xx

  6. Oh my goodness Debbie - that's FAB! I managed to find about 3 handmade mags before they disappeared. Of course they are expensive but if they aren't published every month its not so bad. I'm delighted to hear about the crochet mag - I love crochet! Will definitely want to get my hands on it.

    Congratulations to you Debbie - as I've said before.... how on earth do you have time for everything Wonderwoman!

  7. This magazine is one of my new loves, we actually get it in a pretty timely manner in Australia! (rather than waiting 3mths like with scrapbook inspirations, or 2mths for scrapbooks etc)

    Congratulations on the new position!

  10. I am glad you will be letting us know where we can get them, I have looked for simply handmade and never been able to find it, I have been thinking of getting the online version but it is nice to actually be able to hold the mag so maybe I will wait to see where they are available! :)

  19. Love, love, love this mag and I've bought some in WHSmith and not seen it since. I loved it so much I subscribe to the online version (the USA version).

    I've just started crochet and just want to make little flowers really for my cards but boy, it takes practise !! Would love to see a mag on it.

    I'll keep an eye out for this magazine and would love to know who will be stocking it at the time.

    Many congrats too !
