Cross stitch magazines
I was wondering which cross stitch magazines you buy if any? I have Cross Stitcher on sub, even when I haven't been stitching I still enjoyed reading it.

Re: Cross stitch magazines
I try to get Cross Stitcher and Cross Stitch Crazy when I'm in the area to get them... It's not as easy in the States to get your hands on the magazines..

Re: Cross stitch magazines
I got a bit carried away when I found the mags, and have Crossstitcher, Cross stitch collection and New Stitches on sub.
I'm thinking of stopping the New Stitches as however much I think I might do some other types of stitching, I really don't and I have a huge amount of back issues anyway. But If I had to have just one I'd have Cross stitch collection.

Re: Cross stitch magazines
I subscribe to cross stitch collection and world of cross stitch. I did have a sub to crossstitcher, but after the way they spoke to me and their new look I wrote them off and wouldn't touch them with a barge pole. I also like Cross stitch Crazy, but there aren't enough designs I want to stitch to warrant a sub
Re: Cross stitch magazines
I love the magazines, ever so slightly addicted to them.
I always buy Crossstitcher, World of Cross Stitching and Cross stitch Collection. Occasionally I'll buy Cross Stitch Gold and Cross Stitch Crazy as well. I used to buy New Stitches when we lived in Abu Dhabi, but since moving back to the UK I've had difficulty finding it.
I also have an online sub to The Gift of Stitching, which is probably my favorite magazine, and I might be getting a 1 yr sub for Just Cross Stitch (won it in a giveaway, but not receive any issues yet).

I was given a subscription for Cross Stitcher for Xmas and I just subscribed to Cross Stitch Crazy too. I'm just waiting for a subscription gift I like to subscribe to WOXS next...

Re: Cross stitch magazines
I subscribe to World of Cross Stitching, and may occasionally by Cross Stitch Collection or Cross Stitch Gold when abroad. Cross stitch magazines are very hard to find in Norway, except from WOCS and Cross Stitch Crazy (I think...). When I'm in France I tend to "hoard" magazines; one of my favourites is Point de Croix Magazine.
Re: Cross stitch magazines
We seem to like the same ones
, when I first started stitching I used to buy WOCS and Cross Stitcher, then I found, that I stitching more out of Cross Stitcher, so that is the one I went for on Sub.

Re: Cross stitch magazines
I never subscribed to any magazines when in the UK but have loved buying Point de Croix Anthologie and Point de Croix since moving to France. Every month is so different from the one before and have such a mixture of different designs and styles. I only buy them when I see them, which isn't often - but that makes it more exciting to see what's in it!!

Re: Cross stitch magazines
I used to subscribe to CrossStitcher, Cross Stitch Gold, World of Cross Stitching and Cross Stitch Collection, and sometimes buy Cross Stitch Crazy and Cross Stitch Card Shop in the shops. That was while I was living in the UK. Now that I've had to move back to Canada, I can't afford to keep the subs up as they cost over twice the price here, and miss them terribly!
There aren't very many made in North America, and if I'm honest, they aren't as good as the UK ones. Stoney Creek's not bad though...

Re: Cross stitch magazines
I...have never bought a cross stitch magazine. Ever. I hate that for most of them, you can't flip through (at least the ones I see on the shelves) and I don't want to buy something if there isn't anything I like in it!
