Welcome new visitors to All About Appliqué! You may be here as a stop on the QPM blog hop… if so, stay awhile and poke around! This is a great resource for any quilter interested in appliqué of any kind.
Regular readers… Have you heard about the new online pattern magazine created by a quilter for quilters? Introducing The Quilt Pattern Magazine, debuting in January!
Cindy McCoy, the quilting brain behind QuiltCampus.net, is the publisher of this exciting new venture. I’ve been watching this new publication develop since it was first announced, and when the sample pages went up on the website, I was thrilled to discover that the editor is a great chum of mine, Maria Hrabovsky of Maria Michaels Designs!
I immediately submitted a short piece for the first issue of the magazine. It’s a review of Baltimore’s Country Cousins from AQS Publishing.
The cool thing about The Quilt Pattern Magazine is that since it’s online, there are no printing or shipping costs like those associated with other magazines. Subscribers will receive monthly issues with no less than five new patterns included in each. A subscription gives instant access to magazine issues from the day of their release to two months afterward.
Save trees! Print only the pages you need.
Would you like to win a free one-year subscription to The Quilt Pattern Magazine? Here’s what you need to do: Go to the magazine website right now and take a look around. Then come back here and leave a comment about it on this post.
Here’s a link to the magazine that’ll open up in a separate window. Go! Then come back!
Hey, great to see you again! Now comment here to enter the drawing. My winner will be announced during the first week of January.
Cheerio!

Brilliant. Now I can feed my addiction without having to buy a new bookcase.
I popped over to see what the magazine sample pages look like. The applique block of the month looks interesting. And a pieced block of the month for those who don’t do applique.
Thank you for letting us know about this innovative quilting magazine! Can’t wait to share it in our next guild newsletter.
I think the magazine is a great idea.
What a great idea — the block of the month looks interesting
I checked out the site too. What impressed me is the price. Printing and mailing a hard copy magazine is expensive. Subscription price is really nice!
O I love e-zines. I read several of them this way. Thank you for the chance to enter a drawing for a subscription. My favorite? I love BOMs and the tantalizing glimpse of the one in the zine is no exception.
I liked what the sample of Quilt Pattern Magazine, and is a wonderful idea. I am sure in the future that is how we will receive all our magazines. Which definetly cuts down on clutter.
I haven’t heard about that magazine. Thanks for sharing the information. It looks very interesting so I may need to subscribe if I’m not lucky enough to win your drawing.
Love this idea. I have too many magazines and it is a struggle to find the pattern I want from the pile. Printing patterns online….brilliant.
Wow! looks really great! Of course, they had me hooked with the Baltimore Album on the cover …
Thanks for letting me know about this new publishing venture. It looks very interesting. Brenda
This looks like a great way to have a magazine without the bulk. Thanks for the chance to see a bit of it and the opportunity to win. =!=
This is a wonderful idea. Only need to print the patterns I need but can look at others all I want onscreen! Can even enlarge print, if needed. Yeah………..
I like the looks of the pieced BOM. I’m fairly new to applique, but enjoy it. Thanks for the giveaway.
I love this idea! This is going on my Christmas list for sure. I like being able to print what I want and of course I love applique!
LOVE THIS IDEA!
THE BOM’S LOOKED GREAT!
I think this magazine will become my favorite!
Good price and convenient to be able to see it online and print only what you need!
What a great magazine! I too live how I can print what I need!

What a nice idea – this printing only what you want. I like green ideas and I like the variety of projects that will be featured each month.
Hope I win!
I’ve been following this one, too! I can’t wait to see the first issue – the quilt on the cover sure looks fantastic!
Looks like a great magazine and I really like the price!
I love electronic books and magazines and am a new convert to hand applique so this is a very exciting announcement and something to really look forward to for the New Year!
This is a great idea and I’ve been following its progress to date. As well as the great projects, I like how the various skill levels are identified so you know exactly who they’re targeting with their patterns.
Hi, it´s Fausta from Brazil and I would like to win this online magazine. I´m certain that the world will thanks this way of read a magazine.
Best regards, Fausta
This is an interesting concept. I would want to try it out first before purchasing a subscription. Thanks for the drawing.

Love to win .have a great day
How great! I love digital downloads!
It would be really good to win this because I am not yet convinced about digital magazines. They seem to be popping up all over the place. It’s nice that they take up so little space and you don’t feel like a hoarder keeping them all. But I have to sit at my desk to read them. That is the downfall. Maybe it’s fine. I’m just not sure yet…
So thankful to know about this new online site! I love that I can subscribe and only print what I need! Count me in….
Can’t wait for this new magazine, or should I say, e-zine?
Wow, on-line and lots of various quilting related articles. I will love it!!!!
This is such a great opportunity. I will have my lap top while I’m away for the winter and my magazine will always be with me.
I would love to win a subscribe to the new magazine.

Congratulations on having something published in the very first issue of this nmagazine! It sounds like a great mag and a great buy. I would love to win a subscription so I’m crossing my fingers. It looks great – I hope they will have articles and patterns for crazy quilting in future issues!
Hugs,

What a fantastic idea – just love browsing on the internet and not having to go to the shops to get a mag then I can just dowload exactly what I lke :-)
Very excited about the new online magazine!!!!!
Would love to win, Kay. I like the idea of making a collection of the patterns on my computer.
I have not heard of this online magazine. Looks pretty cool. Going to check the link.
Great idea to have mag the has gone green. I hope it continues for many years.

I am looking forward to the new online magazine.
This looks a great idea – especially for overseas readers! We can save a tree or two too!!
Gill
Love the magazine’s format. Obviously a lot of care and thought has gone into it’s design. If that care is also taken on the content…I expect this will be one successful endeavor!! So far, I’m impressed!
Love the look of the new emagazine. Would love to win a free subscription. Looking forward to the first issue.
I love this idea!
I like that we will be able to store the patterns on the computer. There will also be 2 blocks of the month and i always enjoy them.
I love that you can easily submit photo’s and articles for future issues and from issues that you have made something from. There are really good clear instructions.
I am just very excited.
A wonderful new venue to promote our quilting community and allowing us to submit ideas etc. Love it!
I think this is a great idea to have an e-magazine. Can’t wait to see the whole issue.
Thanks for the chance at a free year’s subscription.
Wonderful idea. Thank you for the giveaway
Great giveaway! I love this concept!
This looks like a great magazine for beginners, like me, and experienced quilters alike. I think I’ll give it a try!
I would love to win a subscription to this magazine. I like the idea that it is online and I keep what I want or copy it to a disk for future reference.
Wonderful way to save money, paper, and time spent looking for that one pattern you knew you saw somewhere. Look forward to Jan. issue and new BOM.
Sounds like a great idea, especially being able to save and print only the bits we want. Like the look of the patterns.
I’m glad to have the chance to print out “only” patterns which I am interested in making. I’m into saving paper when possible.
I love the idea of an online quilting magazine. I already use an ereader and like the chance to cut down on the paper in my house. More room for quilting!
Great Idea – looking forward to it
Never done this before,already paid for subscription, cannot wait for the 1st issue.
Ilse
This looks and sounds like such a great idea! Thanks for offering a subscription.
What a great idea for a magazine! Sounds exciting.
This would leave more shelf space for fabric in my hobby room!
i think the new quilt pattern magazine will be fun fun fun
I love the idea of an online magazine and it can print out only what I need from it. Very green idea to start the New Year. Thank you for participating in the blog tour!
I can’t wait for the first issue!
Love the Magazine and the opportunity to network with fellow quilters.
First, it’s a great idea; second, I saw a number of patterns that I really loved; third, I’m out of room for any more paper magazines or pattern books.
I love the idea of saving tree’s and being able to only print what I want!!! Great idea!!! Thanks>
Looks like a really useful magazine for quilters.
