Home makers insanity!

 Started videoing Magazine flip throughs, this is Golden Hands part 3/91. The magazine is from 1976 and has some really cool retro pictures and patterns, one I recall recreating myself! The doll on the back cover looks really simple , so I'm thinking of trying to make these at work.  Heres my video link  https://youtu.be/jp9ckXXzao4 and links to The Golden hands Raverly page, where others have recreated the patterns! https://www.ravelry.com/designers/golden-hands

 So I bought some Vogue magazines from eBay  I think. This was for the sole purpose of using them for Gelli plate printing.
