The new Burdas are here!!

After what feels like aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaages of reading other peoples reviews on PatternReview.com, at long last the NEW BURDAS ARE HERE!!!

Even better – THE BURDA PLUS IS HERE!!

[Mum, I'll be popping yours in the post tomorrow. Along with the January one which I really really liked a lot of things from.]

Some months I want to make EVERYTHING in the Burda magazine – some months – meh, not so much. I love every pattern except one in the Burda Plus – so that’s 29 out of the thirty illustrated. Not bad for $20, eh?!

The March issue of Burda WOF – well, not so impressed with the plus size selections, but there are some very pretty patterns in the regular sizes. For now I have enough alterations to make on a plus size, there’s nothing that would realllly tempt me to grade up a smaller pattern.

Now if you’ll excuse me, that lining fabric has just finished going through the washer; it’s still so windy here (but not as cold, thank goodness!) that by the time I make a cuppa tea the lining will be dry and ready to cut out.

Off to SEW!!

    Hi, I was just wondering where you get your Burda magazines from? Do you buy them here in Australia or do you have to subscribe from OS?
    Love your blog,
    Stephanie

    Stephanie, I get my Burdas from the newsagent in town – they are the only place in town that gets them, though! I’m seriously considering subscribing direct with Burda in Germany, because we have to wait for 2-3 months to see each issue after the publication date – arrrgggh! What’s worse is that the pictures of each issue go up on the Burda site and we can see them taunting us for MONTHS!

    BTW, the newsagent only gets Burda and their craft mag – Anna, I think it’s called? from the distributor once a month, and that’s the only magazines that distributor deals with – your newsagent may be reluctant to have to set up an account for just that one magazine – it may be easier to subscribe.
