The Booga Bag is appearing in the August 2006 issue of Quick & Crafty Magazine -- a UK Crafty Mag. I actually got an email from Sarah at the magazine over a month ago and hadn't heard anything since, so I wasn't sure if they decided to use the info that she asked me to send her or not. But today I received a couple of copies of the magazine in my mailbox and there it was!
The magazine is really fun and if you see a copy, I would recommend picking it up. I hadn't seen it before, but Sarah said that it is available at some of the larger bookstore chains in the US. It's kind of fun because each project has an estimated completion time listed! From quickly flipping through this issue I already saw a project that intrigued me -- transferring photos to china. How cool is that?!? The photos of the completed projects in the mag look incredible. I may have to give that a try.
(Other projects in the mag -- knit handbag, cross-stitch, lots of cards, fimo clay, flower arranging, china painting, beading -- heck, there's a little of everything!)
Wow - that's too cool! Congrats!

My booga bad is in the blocking stage right now. I love it. Thank you for making such a easy fun pattern free. I have already bought the yarn for my mom and sisters booga bags (christmas gifts).
