Waiting, waiting, waiting...
I enjoy OW and look forward to it arriving.
I must learn to be more patient...

Is their preview up? It wasn't when I checked last week. I'm getting impatient, too -- I plan to restart my subscription with this issue , but first I want to see the preview.

The planned publish date is March 1, much too long to wait! Although it is probably just the right timing for spring wardrobe planning in Finland.

Interesting, seems like they're going in a vintagey direction, or an arty-er one - some of both in this issue. Glad to see that they're mixing it up a little.

Oooh! I've been waiting, too, but won't look at the preview because I like the surprise. But I'm excited to hear that the issue has a vintage/arty vibe!!

I think some of the designs are cute. I might get it. Although, I'm a little concerned with #13, the pants. The line drawing makes them look a little off. lol

There's another thread on this topic -- here -- maybe they could be combined?

As I mentioned in the other thread, I'm not feeling this one (except for one item)... but that's OK. I'll see what they come out with in the fall. Although I'm almost tempted to get this issue for a friend of mine who takes larger plus sizes -- she loves drapey, oversized tops and jackets.

Sorry, Robyn, didn't mean to 'spoil' you. :)

I didn't resubscribe to OW last year and I've been OK with that decision. I went crazy with buying Knipmodes and I really have to use them before my sewing corner explodes with pattern mags. But I still have to check out all the new issues to make sure there's nothing that I can't live without. ;)
