That sounds like a really good idea & I would like to do that. It would sure eliminate alot of magazines. Only thing I wonder is would it be a violation of copyright? Sure wouldn't want to get in trouble

A few lady's on the board have sent me some magazines, that helped me out a great deal with new ideas, so you could donate some. I no there are a few of us that don't get to treat our selves, and a new treat in the mail is always a instant joy, even if your having a bad day. God bless. Penny

I am not sure about copy right law. I will look it up. I don't know why you couldn't do the CD storage for yourself. You bought the magazine. I imagine if you were holding a quilting class and teaching others how to do a certain quilt featured in a magazine, you would have to get permission beforehand. Anyway, I know that is what I plan to do to make a CD with my fav patterns. And I have done this for my knitting patterns.

you are right Penny about treating ourselves. I never have extra money too buy a magazine with. Rarely ever go too town unless it is too see a doctor. I have a friend that brought me two quilt magazines just the other night and I have looked and looked at those.

Baloonatic that sounds like a good thing to do. Do you scan your pages or use a camara. I found out one of my cameras has a setting for copying pages of stuff. I have tried it but haven't looked at the pictures yet as my big monitor quit and I can hardly see on this old monitor. But I am glad I kept this monitor even though I have to strain too look at anything.
