Leisure Arts: The Magazine by Leisure Arts (Crafts, Magazine, 1989, Leisure Arts, 80s crafts, spring crafts, vintage magazine, Easter patterns)

This is the April 1989 issue of "Leisure Arts: The Magazine," featuring 34 projects. Highlights include bread covers for spring, an Easter tree, a "Purr-fect" cat-themed afghan and pillow, and heirloom baby bonnets.

Review:
A lovely snapshot of early spring crafting from the late 80s. This issue of Leisure Arts' magazine offers a charming mix of seasonal projects, from needlework to home decor, all in the brand's accessible and popular style.

Author summary:
Leisure Arts is one of America's largest publishers of "how-to" craft content, including magazines, books, and leaflets. For decades, they have been a leading source for patterns in needlearts, painting, and general crafts.

The collectible value is low. Leisure Arts was a major publisher, and their magazines are not rare. The grade appears fair. Its value is for the specific patterns and as a piece of historical ephemera from the popular 1980s craft scene.
