The first week we arrived in Texas it came in the mail and I was super excited to check it out. I flipped through the first half of the mag and when I came to the center-fold, there it was!
A short little interview:
with a few pictures:
My favorite part about it being a UK magazine is the slight changes in vocabulary. They didn't change any of the article content. But some "z"s were changed to an "s". While became whilst. And store-bought in the UK is pronounced shop-bought. How cute does that sound?! (with a lovely british accent of course)Did you see who was spotlighted in the column next to me? Craft Hope! I'm honored:
I had Casey take some pics of me and the kids since I don't have any real pictures of "me" (other than stuff I've taken myself...you know, the dumb close-ups with part of my arm in the shot). It was kind of an impromptu photo shoot from the Sunshine Shortie pics. Unfortunately, most of the photos of me are too silly or out out of focus:
So I settled on this one of me and Owen:
How I love these little people:

Thank you SEW magazine. You totally made my week, month, who knows how long? I'm still excited about it!

Dana~You are the WOMAN! Congrats. My claim to fame will be that I knew you before you were famous...please remember the little people:)))
So cool! I love the pix of you & the kids...I love that there's another mom out there who wears her hair like that, as my husband calls them "knobby things."
Congrats, Dana! You deserve the spotlight.

Oh, I had no idea!! We'll have to get a dozen copies for the shop and invite you out for a signing... How exciting, and very, very cool--congrats!
I did, of course, mean DOZENS of copies. Because one dozen wouldn't be nearly enough, clearly. You're a celebrity, for crying out loud!
Congrats on your center fold!

AHHHHHH!!!!
Yay! Congratulations on the magazine. So how does it feel to be in print? You definitely deserved it!
I wish I could take pictures like you! All my craft photos are so "blah." It doesn't help that there's always a sloppy house in the background!
That is so AWESOME!!! Congrats, and how exciting. You are very inspirational to so many, me included!
Congratulations! You absolutely deserve to be highlighted in SEW. You're awesome, Dana, and you've totally inspired me to experiment with sewing. I've got some cute costumes now to show for it that I will post on my blog soon. I'm glad you're doing well.

Well done. I love that mag!!

Congrats on the magazine placement!
Congratulations! That's super exciting!!!
