"NESTING NEWBIES MAGAZINE" LAMPSHADE PROJECT

This is one of the newest on-line magazines to hit the screen:

    NESTING NEWBIES

When you click the link above you will go directly to the on-line site: take a look around! I thought this project would be a good introduction to show you. 

But, what do YOU think of on-line magazines? I have trouble with them: you can't skim; you can't flip through the pages (that is, without being at your computer); you can't put stickies on pages to earmark; and some are very awkward to navigate. This one seems easier, but still, I have trouble zooming in and then having to move the page around all the time in order to see it all. And with LONNY, only the latest issue is available for viewing, and that I find a huge problem. We will see what happens with NESTING NEWBIES. Couldn't they have found a better name???

     

     

      

     
 

        

         
  
     One question here: if you don't have a drum shape shade, you have to allow for less fabric at the top,     right?  hmmmm

I have to agree, not a fan of online magazines. I mean, we need to get away from the computer sometime! I like taking a stack of favorite mags to the boat with me to flip through at my leisure ~ away from the computer.

I read one the other day that made a fipping sound when you turned the pages, I thought that was kinda clever. I really did like the NN mag. When you are making a shaped shade you have to lay it down on your fabric and roll it while you trace the shape so that is comes out the right shape. Can you tell me how you got those pages to copy ? I couldn't do it !! Thanks
