    Why you should buy an M/A Calendar over the sewing sites one....

    1. Less Expensive, the more M/A calenders you buy the more you save too. They make great gifts.

    2. It's Larger, M/A's is 8.5" x 11", not 8.5" x 5.5"

    3. Layout is by an M/A member, who knows who did theirs.

    4. Printer is a local biz, not some faceless print place. Supporting those that support us!

    5. Proceeds from the M/A calender go to support things like the MINI Skirts Breast Cancer fundraisers, not to some giant corporate entity.

    6. Discounted pre-order period is longer.

    7. M/A Calender will be shipped in time for holiday gift giving, theirs won't.

    I was having a bit of trouble wrapping my head around the actual size of the calendar until today. I know I wrote it is 8.5"x11", but that is the folded size. When gracing your wall it is 17"x11". This is a monster full sized calendar here. One that those of us of a certain age can see from a distance. Room to make notes in the date blocks if desired. Room enough that we are going over the smaller images that were submitted as well, looking for places we can use them too.

    All for only 12 bucks* delivered to your door anyplace in the world.


    *The fine print. $12 until December 4, then $15.

    During the pre-order period shipping is included for anyplace in the world, including Canada.

    There are calenders going a lot of places, Canada, Oz, New Zealand, Germany, Italy, France, Israel, Norway, Belgium, UK, and I know there were others I left out.

    ...and they've added a nice little calendar advertisement on the sewing site too. :cornut:

    Brilliant work from all of the photographers and designers on the calendar, thanks Nathan!
