It isn’t real often that I’m totally enamored with a non-quilting magazine. There are quite a few that I like and will pick up when I see them IF they have several articles that excite me. But, today I received the Sprin, 2013 issue of Capper’s Farmer magazine.
This is the first time I’ve seen this magazine, which is published by the same folks who publish Grit, which I also like.
Articles in this issue include Living Off the Land, Savory Pies, Woodstove Cookery and . . there’s an article in this issue by me.
For those of you who like living in the country, or would like to live in the country, I think you would LOVE this magazine.
I have never seen this magazine before. What is your article about? I will have to call around and see if I can locate one. Pretty cool stuff!!
A magazine that we wouldn’t get here in NZ, and it looks like a good read! Like Diane, I too am curious as to what your article says … and given your blog is a ‘must read’ every day for me, I have no doubt youir article would be an exceptional read! Congratulations
Well, aren’t you just a woman of many talents? But we already knew that!
I knew you would write about something other than quilting one day!!! Wink! Woo hoo! I am happy for you! I have never heard of that magazine will check it out!!!
Couldn’t resist — after studying the picture of the table of contents, I’m guessing that you wrote the article Working Treasures, about old sewing machines.
Please let us know about the article you wrote! I’ve never seen this magazine before. Looks interesting.
I often pick up Grit, Mother Earth News, Hobby Farms, seasonal gardening magazines – whatever catches my eye. I am interested in so many “farm” type subjects. Congratulations on being published in a new venue! Cheers! Evelyn
I am with Evelyn, whenever I am in Tractor Supply I pick up the newest ones that look interesting to me. Funny coincidence is that I have the newest Grit (which I read last night!) and I saw the ad for Cappers and was seriously considering ordering it… just because it talked about Spring!! I am SO over the winter in Ohio (not that it’s been bad but it’s always so gray.) Anyway, I think it must be the article about Sewing and Knitting projects, or one of the soup recipes… either way I am going to have to order a copy now

I wonder if that is a spin off of Cappers’ Weekly. I remember reading that when I was much younger. It was printed on newsprint and had a similar feel to the articles. I had forgotten Grit, too. I think they were connected somehow. Thanks for the stroll down memory lane.
The Grit is still published? My grandpa, a farmer, always go “the Grit,” as he called it. What’s your article about?
I remember my Grandma getting Capper’s Weekly. Oh my, that’s a LONG time ago. Wonder if this is from the same company.
My Mom and grandparents always had Capper’s Weekly, and it was one of the few magazines that I could find something interesting to me as a kid. I’m glad they’re still out there!
my mom subscribes to a Capper’s Weekly and has for 60+years. I wonder if this is their new format?
Congratulations! Is your article the one about how to crochet a shawl? The magazine looks very interesting!
thanks Judy, signed up for a subscription, we already read The Grit, wish it was like it was 50 yrs ago though-lol.
