    My favorite magazine is ‘WHERE WOMEN CREATE’….
    I’m in my senior years and I so enjoy seeing all the ideas and inspirations
    that each person does. I have been able to take some of the suggestions and
    put them in my very small stitching room. It’s wonderful to be able to enjoy
    not only my room, but to look at all the different creations from others who
    enjoy their rooms.

    My second favorite is STUFFED. How can’t anyone who sews and stitches not
    adore this absolutely cheerful mag with so many things to sew???? There will
    never be enough time to do and make all the things on my TO DO LIST.

    Thanks so very much for allowing us to see ideas…. great minds!!!!!
