I’ve always wanted to read a Sewing World magazine, so I was on cloud nine when offered the opportunity to do a review! Editor Julie mailed the July edition all the way to Kansas from the UK, and after devouring every page, I give it a 10 out of 10! And I was so excited to see this amazing bag designed by one of my favorite bloggers, Susan of Susie D Designs (with a pattern you can also get at Susan’s Etsy shop . . . and she’ll have a bag in the September issue, too!) Since a picture is worth a thousand words, please browse the photos and my comments below and then click HERE to go to the Sewing World website for subscription information and lots of fun projects, patterns, and other goodies. Thank you, Julie! ♥

Wow, that looks like a great magazine! I didn’t know this was out there. Thanks for turning me on to it.
You’re very welcome, Beth! 🙂 Are you back in school? Hope you had a great summer! 🙂
Congratulations, that’s a great compliment!
Thank you for reading, Mary . . . it’s a great publication, for sure! 🙂
I gave up on magazines when I found Pinterest, but your review reminded me why I used to love browsing a new one. Congrats!
I DO love REAL magazines! Luckily, I can get subscriptions to almost all my favorites through reward points from our recycling company . . . but now I want Sewing World, too! 🙂
That bag does look really good.
Susan regularly has projects in Sewing World . . . she’s a fabulous designer! 🙂
Katherine, thank you so much for such an awesome comment! Blushing!

Well-deserved, Susan! (The compliment, not the blush!) 🙂
I am very familiar with that mag and like it a lot! That bag is great (I already have that fabric for a quilt!!!). Great review!!! Hugs…….
Thank you! It’s rare to find a magazine where you love every page . . . but this one met that description for sure! 🙂 Happy quilting! 🙂

You’re very welcome! This is one magazine that will never end up in the recycling box! 🙂
Yes you are right, it is a great magazine !!
I didn’t know about this magazine so thanks for sharing. I also liked the models look like ‘real’ people. 🙂
I agree . . . I love that, too! 🙂
Great little magazine. Been thinking of getting one for ages, then at the beginning of the month. Now, I just love it so I ended up getting a subscription for a year 🙂
Yay! It’s definitely a treasure chest of inspiration! 🙂
Looks like a great magazine! I see lots of great ideas and projects. 🙂 ~Laurie

Hi Katherine – thanks so much for a wonderful review of my magazine! I am very proud of it and pleased it’s been so well received!! Julie x
You’re most welcome, Julie! You really DO have something to be proud of in this top-notch publication! 🙂
Hi Katherine,
what a fab review! (and thank you for the amazing compliments about my bag and blog, I’m so humbled) This magazine really is the best and I promise I’m not just saying that ’cause I have projects in it. Julie (editor) and the team do the most amazing job – all the great projects, articles, features and so on… I look forward to my issue every month.
