My joining the Russian Burda website is working rather well, as it seems that only logged in members can view the previews of the new magazines? Anyway, you might get to see the new designs here with any luck. Overall I have to say I am quite pleased with this issue. I think there is a … More Newsflash: June Burda Preview Posted
I have been waiting for the preview of the May Burda all week. Every time I checked the Russian website the page was up, but I couldn’t see any of the model photos. Actually, I still can’t see the model photos on the main page, and according to my reader Sewing Sveta, the Russian website … More Newsflash: May Burda Preview Posted (Sort Of)
Before we get to the Burda-ness of this post, let me point out that the latest Kwik Sew patterns have also been announced, but other than a pattern for yoga pants they are all pretty much not inspiring, so I won’t even bother to given them their own post. RIP Kwik Sew, I loved you … More Newsflash: April Burda Preview Announced!
The Russian Burda has posted the preview of the March issue! All in all… I am not quite as excited as I was for February.

Like last year, I will be choosing a best and worst individual pattern (nominees are the best/worst … More A Year in Review: BurdaStyle Magazine 2012
After the fabulous issue that was December I had high hopes for the start of Burda’s new year. Sadly, those hopes were dashed with the full preview of the January issue. I suppose after the brilliance that was December it is natural that there would be something of a lull in the next issue. And … More Newsflash: January 2013 Burda Preview!
Perhaps a better title for this post would be, “BurdaStyle: A Redemption Story.” As you might recall, I was none too thrilled by the early preview of this issue. Luckily, the early preview showcased most of the boring patterns from this issue, instead of the good stuff. When I looked through the full preview on … More Newsflash: BurdaStyle December Preview Posted
Russian Burda finally got its act together after teasing me with a sad and mostly empty page (showing only one new photo, and another picture from last year), and now has the full November Preview up. Overall I am pretty excited for this issue. I mean, sure, there is an entire section dedicated to slouchy at … More Newsflash – November BurdaStyle Preview Posted!
Our favorite Russian website has posted the full preview of the October Burda! Overall I have to say there are a lot of things I like, but I didn’t really find a standout pattern this time around.
