Sign of the Times
For years I’ve collected the back issues of Victoria Magazine, searching eBay for issues, and finally happy to say I think I have them all. Two full shelves dedicated to these magazines, neatly organized in boxes by year.
This week as I was flipping through the latest issue of Victoria guess what I saw? You can now buy a set of 2 DVD’s with all the back issues of Victoria. Every single issue and the ability to search by subject, article , name etc.
Two full shelves of magazines or 2 little DVD’s? People tell me it’s not the same as flipping through the actual magazine, and then I keep picturing those 2 little DVD’s sitting quietly on the shelf, not taking up much space, not collecting much dust. I’m in a mood to simplify my life . What would you do?
Speaking of de-cluttering, if you haven’t been over to the website lately, you’ll find Moda Bella, Essential Dots and Grunge on sale for 50% off. Also while you’re there be sure and look at what’s in the Sale section. I’m discontinuing all the Cosmo multiwork floss except for #4300 red. We’ll still have the Cosmo floss when we move to our new website, just not the Cosmo multiwork. This is your chance my sweet blog readers to purchase those backings or add to your fabric stash before I announce it in my newsletter next week.
Hope you’re having a great weekend. I’m finishing up the last quilt before market and then its off to be quilted!
Hugs,
Anne

Seriously…how often would you load those disks to look at those magazines on the computer? I know that I wouldn’t!! I love the feel of magazines and books in my hands, flipping through pages is a sweet pleasure that no computer or notebook or iPad will ever replace!

I too HAD all of the Victoria issues, that is until we moved. I decided it was time to get rid of all the things I did not “need”. I tookmone last trip down memory lane with them, enjoyed them one motpre time, then I donated them to a retirement home. Im not sure if anyone there enjoyed them as much as I had, but at least I didnt just toss them in the trash! The DVD set sounds enticing!
