The World of Cross Stitching Reviews

by Squirrelet

It crashes when I try to open anything. Would be great to be able to access what I’ve paid for since it’s difficult and much, much more expensive to find in stores.

Even though I’ve paid for issues of this magazine- most of them in fact, TheWorldofCrossStitching rarely lets me access them. There are some I used to be able to get and now they won’t download anymore. So, I recommend either buying hard copies of this magazine or screen shotting the patterns you want to keep, because it’s unpredictable if you’ll get to access them in the future. This is deceptive advertising and I wish Apple would look into it.

Don’t buy or use.. lost all previously purchased magazines. Customer service unresponsive. If you make an in App purchase, you are wasting your money

Update: I’ll give it one more star because there is now a printer icon. However, there is no ability to use the full AirPrint function and print to a PDF so worthless to me. I could do that before the update even though it was 1 page at a time. I’m back to screen shots to GoodNotes so I can zoom in and mark off.

I was excited about the update because of the printing. I could print but just 1 page at a time so figured I would be able to print the entire pattern. App updated and now there is NO printing function. There is also no Read Mode that was described in the email and TheWorldofCrossStitching Guide - just a table of contents. Magazine is still great. Severely disappointed in app.

I love the ideas in the magazine and TheWorldofCrossStitching makes things easy to view. I wish there was a way to tell which month was which issue of the magazine since article references cite a number but the magazines are listed by month...is there a way to see both when looking at the cover pictures?

Love the fact that you can get old issues. The only problem is you don’t get the bonuses. I wish you told us that up front because that was the reason I bought that issue and then I didn’t get the bonus 😔now I have to try and find it somewhere else.

The magazine is great but TheWorldofCrossStitching is terrible. I cannot keep looking at the patterns over and over they won’t let me see them after the first time! I’ll go back to hard copies or not at all!!!!

Great for accessing back issues, but I wish I could view them on my computer, not just on my phone or iPad

Thank you for offering a digital copy. Since I'm on disability now I can better afford this, it's more convenient, and I love being able to expand the view so I can see better. I can also print what I am working on and take it to the store for shopping.

I love this magazine! I have been a paper version subscriber for many years and have enjoyed the free gifts with each issue. I recently switched to a digital subscription and wish that when the freebie is a chart, the chart be included in the digital version. Otherwise the projects, articles, advice, etc. are excellent.

I love to cross stitch and this magazine has all the patterns I need to keep me busy.

I love The World of Cross Stitch! One of the best cross stitch magazines out there!! I’ve never had any issues with TheWorldofCrossStitching !

Love the publication but this new app is unstable. I keep getting kicked out whether I'm trying to just get into TheWorldofCrossStitching or trying to go thru an issue. I wouldn't consider purchasing a subscription or additional issues until TheWorldofCrossStitching is reliable. Unfortunate because I really love the magazine and have bee waiting for the new digital issues.

I like the patterns very much looking forward to stitching some!

I love this magazine! It is so fresh and modern. TheWorldofCrossStitching makes buying supplies and stitching the designs so easy! I love the ability to magnify the charts! Saves my eyesight!

by Oldsweetlady

Love this magazine always has the best patterns. And with the digital I can print from my I phone and I love it . Keep up the good work.

by Bolognamem

LOVE this magazine & app. It is always filled with so many creative charts...it is sheer indulgence to read cover to cover. Love having my “library” of issues at my fingertips. Less clutter and MORE joy !! What a treat to myself ! Yes, I am happy & delighted !

by Lorrus

I have really enjoyed this, you also have an opportunity to order back issues. I really wish all craft magazines would go to this.

by Chriha

I just started cross stitching 4 months ago. I’ve learned so much from this magazine. There are always tons of projects that are great for beginners and well-seasoned stitchers alike. The digital subscription and purchase of the back issues is absolutely worth it!

by Secret128

I love this magazine and TheWorldofCrossStitching works very well. I can enjoy issues for less than the newsstand price, you don't have to worry about storing them and best thing is when you want to do a project it is easy to print them with your phone.

by SparklingRedRose1

Love this cross stitching magazine! Lots of cute and adorable patterns for beginners all the way to advance stitchers. Plus great tips from the experts and of course, there is a free set of a chart with threads to try whether it be a card, bookmarkers, etc. Lastly, we get to hear what stitchers from all over the world like.

by Binkysmom

This magazine just gets better and better! The designs range from beginner to challenging, the directions are well written and easy to follow. I look forward to it every month.
