    Description

    Back issues of Creative Needle magazines from 1986 to 1993.
    Smocking, handsewing, embroidery, and other needle arts.
    Some magazines have inserts, some don't seem to have them in the table of contents so I don't think they are missing. Ask me about a particular issue if you need to know.
    Lots and lots of terrific projects and the ads are gorgeous too. Lots and lots of ads.
    Before you pay please let me send you an invoice
    so I can adjust postage correctly and if you buy multiple issues I will combine postage prices accordingly.
    This is a list of the contents of one issue just to give you an idea of the variety of projects in each magazine.
