More About This Issue
This issue begins with our Editor telling an age-old tale of coffee, blue jeans, and too many WIPs – the overwhelm of which is paralysing her desire to quilt. Jane shares a recent epiphany which has resulted in her tackling some of her oldest unfinished projects, and she shares tips to help us whip our own WIP (work in progess) list into shape ready for the new year.
Also in Issue 43 is a fabulous collection of modern quilt patterns and projects to fill your creative cup – we MAKE quick quilts and cushions which would make great gifts, a modern applique quilt, a postage stamp quilt, and something a little trickier for those of us who like a challenge. There’s also a handy project travel bag to hold your quilt blocks flat and notions to quilt on the go. We MEET makers Troy Murrah who makes quilts from wood, Sharon Burgess from Lilabelle Lane, and Annie Hudnut. Our regular columnists discuss making plans, fabric substrates, HSTs, and we chat with Jess Zeigler from The Longarm League. An article on Sewing Room Ergonomics will help you make quilting less of a pain in the neck and we MOTIVATE you to try fussy cutting with tips from Ange Wilson of GnomeAngel and a whole gallery of fussy cut inspiration.

Why Readers Love Make Modern
The whole team does a fantastic job and the magazine often has very good competitions.
an app would be excellent to keep all copies in one place but this still works well enough.
