Free Australian Magazines For Lucky Winner!

Today I have been doing some cleaning and organizing in preparation for our trip to the States in two weeks! I'm getting excited now, I'll be away for two months and dh for three weeks as he can't leave the farm for too long.

I found these magazine duplicates as I was sorting through what I have. Usually when I buy quilting magazines here, they come with a back issue as well. These are my "extras" which I thought maybe someone would enjoy instead of going into the recycle. Even though fabric is very expensive and good quilting books are scarce in Australia, I love that quilting magazines are plentiful and good. My favorites are Quilter's Companion followed by Downunder Quilts and Patchwork and Quilting.

So, if you are interested in recieving these magazines for free, please leave a comment and I will be drawing names next Sunday(17th) and will post them to you.

What a sweet thing for you to do! And you are so right - Australian quilt magazines are the best. A much better quality that those published here in the US.

So, will you be taking quilting with you? Or will you reserve your free time for fabric shopping?

Pick me! Pick ! I LOVE the Australian patchwork magazines. I've never picked up an issue that I didn't find 2 or 3 things I really want to do. And not only do I find I want to do them I actually DO! Unlike most US magazines where I go, "oh pretty, maybe one day."

Have fun on your trip.

Great way to go green. I don't know about Australia, but it's all the rage in America to reduce, reuse and recycle. :-D
I've never had an issue of an Australian Quilting magazine. Please, please pick me, pick me.

How nice of you to do this. I also agree that the Australian mags are the best. Our British mags ( 3 different ones ) are a bit "samey". Please enter me in your draw xx

Hi, I think the Australian magazines are the best. I have some of them and I collect them in binders and mark everything I would like to do in them. So please put me in the drawing.
Have a nice trip.

I love the work you have done on your Metro Blue quilt. I think it is a great pattern - I really like Samantha's as well. Such a fresh, modern pattern.

I will add my name to the magazine draw as well. Nothing better that a Australian quilt magazine.
