My subscription to Threads Magazine is up for renewal.
On the one hand, it seems silly to re-subscribe when I have eleven issues in my to-be-read pile. On the other hand, when I get around to reading those eleven issues, I may say find a whole bunch of nifty stuff.
On the first hand again, they seem to think that promising "couture styles, embellishment ideas, and pattern reviews" will tempt me to re-up. I took up sewing in order to avoid current fashion, all my clothes are plain, and I haven't bought a pattern since before some of the staff was born.
