does anyone have this issue that came out yesterday? I dont really want to buy the full magazine as this is the only pattern i really want as I have so many xmas issues/patterns. I saw it in a preview and absolutely love it. Want to make it into a christmas tree skirt.

can pay via paypal for postage.

okay, i wanted it bad and put a lowish bid on a magazine on ebay, including the gifts and low and behold I won :shock: so, got the whole thing cheaper than the local newsagency price. :dance:

and that will be the last time i have to bid for a woxs as my next one comes on a subscrioption i took out a couple of weeks ago starting at issue 171.

That's great Barb--I've been watching ebay for that issue as well, just haven't managed to time it right to get one at a good price. :)

That was my third try..the prices are so bad...postage up to and over 6 pounds. :shock:

you can also buy direct from the origin website under back issues for 7.35 pounds including postage to USA. Thats what i have done in the past when ebay goes stupid. I wont pay more than that on ebay. If I am getting it on ebay, I want to pay less than 7.35 in total!

Thanks for the link Barb--I think I've tried it before, but for some reason, that's the only site that does NOT like my debit card. I'm watching close on a few of the listings, and if nothing else will be able to buy it locallly in a few weeks. :)

Argh! I'm too late! I was just going to say I have the design and will not be using it, so I could have sent it on to you. :(

If anyone else still wants it, nip across to my thread HERE (and see if there's anything else you want while you're there too) and PM me.
