Mumsnet Talk

In my youth I bought Vogue Patterns Magazine which had hints and tips on sewing and previews of new patterns and other things.

I want to get into sewing my own clothes again now and thought I'd start by buying the Magazine, but I can't find it anywhere this side of the Atlantic [sob]. Does anyone know if it still exists here or has it been subsumed into some other magazine?

Take a look on ebay, it's a great place to find magazines!

I remember my mum used to buy this, she loved the insiders tips

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm not really an Ebay gal, but I may have to have a look. I really want this month's edition with up-to-date patterns and stuff in so I can start drooling and planning my new wardrobe!

Here is the link to the vogue site. There is also something called club BMV (butterick mccall vogue) you subscribe and get a futher discount off patterns across the three, but not sure it is worth it if the magazine still do the 2 for 1 offer every edition.

Thanks Steaknife. I did look at that but it looked as if it was published in the States. I have, however, found Sew Today, which seems to be the new version of Vogue Patterns published in the UK and if you subscribe you can get two patterns free, so I'm looking through the patterns on the site wondering which to get first!

They seem to have most of the Vogue, Butterick and McCalls patterns available there.
