Quilting Quickly Magazine Winter 2013
The last issue of Jenny Doan's Quilting Quickly magazine is now available at Fons & Porter's online store (both print and digital editions) for those who are unable to find it locally. I'm going on the hunt this weekend; it should be at Jo-Ann's or Barnes & Noble by then (I hope). I have all the other issues and want to round out my collection with the final (sob! sniff!) one too.

You can get it at Kroger's as well. I got mine last weekend and I want to have Jenny autograph it when I go see her in Columbus on December 6! I'm so excited!

Got mine yesterday in Publix and then mail came and I got winter Easy quilts, so it was a great day.

Dakotamaid, apparently Missouri Star posted on their own forum that it was just too time-consuming for them to produce the magazine. I haven't seen that post, but someone else here spoke about it. I am well and truly bummed out about this news... it had quickly (no pun intended) become my favorite magazine.

I ordered my issue from Missouri Star Quilt Company. Someone buys up every issue as soon as it's on the shelves at the few stores that carry it here! One store manager said the person was reselling them on Ebay. The fall issues were all sold out at Barnes and Nobles last time. The clerk said one woman bought them all for gifts to her quilting friends. I'll save in gas money paying the shipping.

I ordered mine from MSQC, then sent a message asking if Jenny would sign it. I got a reply the next AM saying that she was gone until after Thanksgiving. So I asked them to hold it until she comes back, so she could sign it. I figured if this is going to be the last one, I wanted it signed. I will try to find another copy so I can have it to actually read & use. I understand the reason for not doing any more, but, I hate it. I really love having her patterns in print. The youtube videos are great but, I still like the print ones.
|
I finally found lots of copies at Joann's this afternoon. :-) Oh, don't we wish Jenny could continue them forever!
|
I got mine at Jo-Ann's the other day. I love her magazine and her site.
|
I am anxious to pick up this issue too. Thank you for sharing.
:D :D :D :D |
Our Joann's doesn't have it ... said they didn't receive it ? and I didn't find it at Krogers, HEB, HL or B&N this weekend ... guess I will order online
This may be the "end" of QQ, for now ... but I'll BET the farm that Jenny comes out with another quarterly magazine of her OWN before long ! |
Publishing, editing, selling ads, new content, professional photos, for a magazine is a full time job and major responsibility if your name is on it. Eleanor Burns was going to publish a magazine of her own but opted out after researching the pros and cons and she owns her own publishing company.

JoAnn's here doesn't have it either. I called and the two employees I talked to never heard of it. Said I must be thinking of a book not a magazine because Fons and Porter only has one magazine. Everytime I think about shopping local at Joanns I get reminded why I won't. LOL.
|
I found one Sat. at the local Hasting's. So glad to have found it. They only had 3 copies left when I got mine.
Now when I get mine for MSQC I can frame it & hang it in my sewing room. |
Got mine today at Joann's. The first one I went to didn't have it, but I was lucky to find it at the 2nd Joann's.

My kids say it's because I'm getting older I have no tolerance for deer in the headlight sales people. I say it's because most of the employees are not taught customer service anymore. Most employers are as clueless as their help.
