CraftSanity Magazine Summer Issue 2011 Preview
Summer’s almost here and we’re ready to celebrate the season with a new fun-filled issue of CraftSanity Magazine. From exciting sewing, knitting and crocheting patterns to super-sized crepe paper flowers recipes for strawberry jam, shortcakes and home brewed root beer - this 48-page issue is sure to inspire you to try something new this summer.
Check out this issue and whip up a whimsical polka dot tent, make hair clips and mini books with your kids and sew breezy summer skirts, saloon bloomers, head scarves and totes. We feature Q&A interviews with designers, a paper doll named Lucy, a baker and even a jam maker. Check out the review page for our picks for hot summer reading and a chance to win a cool studio lamp. We even sprinkled in a little Regency Era crafting a la Jane Austen for good measure.
I think you’re gonna like it, folks.
Featured contributors include: Lydia Adams, Anji Beane, Jennifer Casa, Mark & Cara Cesarik, Cydney Colvig, Sarah Dean, Leanne Dougherty, Jennifer Forest, Rebecca Green, Jan Moon, Aimee Ray, Andrew Schloss, Liz Scott, Marcia Skinner & Mary Kay Walker, Ruth Wesolowski, Ellyn Zinsmeister and yours truly.

Thanks for the heads up, Nancy. I can’t believe I forgot to add the link for ordering. Sorry about that! It’s fixed and I’m shaking my head. I just may need to breath into a paper bag for a while because I think I’m a bit too excited for my own good right now.

We visited friends in Eastown last weekend and walked to the Fulton st fRmers market, which is one of the best I’ve seen! I thought of you; hope we are there in a Sunday this summer so I can see you and your wares for myself.

Hi Holly. Thanks for stopping by the blog. I just wanted to clarify that I won’t have a weekly booth at the Fulton Street Artisans Market. I’m will be there on June 12 and may get in the lottery for a booth on another day, but there are no guarantees that I’ll be able to snag a spot in the lottery. I will post info about other shows I’m doing in advance on this blog, so check back for updates.
