Review & Giveaway: Totally Creative online

Totally Creative magazine is a relative newcomer on the scene, but I think it already shows a lot of promise. The sample issue that I saw contained articles by several artists whose work I know and love, including the fabulous Barbara Matthiessen, who wrote an extensive tutorial on creating multi-layered surface design effects on fabric. I also found an article by my friend Beth Wheeler, who shared a felting project.
So what you’ll find are professional designers, whose names you’ll know from other magazines and books, who’ve created projects in all different media and for all different skill levels. Sound interesting?
There were no wearables in this sample issue, but there may be some in other issues. Covering a wide variety of craft media, the issue that I saw was organized around the season and its holidays. There are projects to do with the kids, lots of home decor and gift ideas, a book and a product review, and a directory of online resources to help you actually be able to make the projects. There are many fabric projects that could definitely be enhanced even further by your beading skills!
***FREE STUFF ALERT***
So here’s the giveaway: leave a comment below, telling me what your favorite craft or art form is besides beading, and you’ll be entered for a chance to win a free subscription to Totally Creative for a year! That is six issues, altogether 
Next week, I will be randomly drawing a winner!
