Jill Oxton's Magazine Is Now Biannual

From Chris Franchetti Michaels, About.com GuideSeptember 24, 2012

Follow me on:

I just received a complimentary issue of Jill Oxton's latest Cross Stitch & Bead Weaving and, as usual, it contains lots of gorgeous patterns. Here's a peek at my favorite, an entire antique alphabet suitable for square stitch or loom beading:

In reading the introduction to this one, I learned that publication has been reduced from three issues per year to two per year. This change occurred after my recent review of the magazine, and so I thought I'd pass it along here in the blog.

You might want to correct your title. Biannual means once every two years. I think you want to use “semi-annual”, meaning twice a year.

Biannual actually means twice per year:

But I’ll make sure it’s more clear in the post.

hi, i love using crosstitch patterns but have found that when you use delica size 11 you need to turn the pattern sideways. otherwise the pattern will be scrunched. this shows up especially in a large tapestry. delicas are NOT perfectly square.
