Hi Everyone!
I have the Premiere Issue sitting here in my house as we speak! MaryJane was so sweet and had the journal from the previous pass around scanned. So tonight I am going to craft a cover for the journal and will get the magazine sent out to the first person in the next day or so. We have so many ladies wanting to see the Issue. I will also be sending a letter along with the package and sending an email as I ship it to you so you will know to expect it! I am so excited to see the journal entries as they come!

Hi Everyone!
I made a cover for a binder for the journal last night but was not happy with it. :( So tonight I tried again and was much more pleased. Still, I am a beginner when it comes to all this sewing stuff so please don't laugh when you see my slightly wobbly seams and a few places where the tension wasn't quite right on my machine! :) Oh well. Life is a process right?!
I will be dropping the Journal and Premiere Issue off to be sent out tomorrow. Just remember as you get the magazine- please don't keep it any longer than a week as the list of people who want to see it is growing! :) I can't wait to see your new Journal entries!

Hello Farm Ladies, Yes, put me down for a copy of the premiere issue should it go into a second printing. I'd pre-pay in a skinny minute! Tracy from N Carolina |

mommatracy this isn't for a second printing this is for the use of one magazine for one week then it goes back to the farm. It also has a journal that travels with it that you can write your thoughts in about the first issue.
have a lovely day and may God bless you and keep you safe my bloghttp://sunshinescreations.vintagethreads.com/ my web store http://vintagethreads.com/ |

Hi Ladies!
I have the mailing list updated for all who have emailed me so far.
As far as a second printing- I don't think that MaryJanesFarm is planning on doing one. Of Course that could change in the future. If you want to see the Premiere Issue, please sign up for the pass around. It's tons of fun to see the journal from last time and be able to add on to it!
With all the craziness this past week, I didn't get it sent off earlier this week, but it is all ready to go for Tuesday when the USPS is open again.
Hugs
Alee |

This is just so exciting! I can't wait to hear all your responses to seeing the premiere issue - I know that the first journey one took was so wonderful and successful - I'm sure this one will be the same - thanks, Alee, for setting it up and getting it on its way!!!
XOXO, Libbie

Hi everyone! I'm kinda new to MaryJanesFarm. Saw the Artists in Aprons issue in the store and since I'd been waxing nostalgic lately (thinking of my grandmas and their aprons)I just had to take it home. I ordered all the back issues and have been reading, reading, reading. It would be great fun to see the Premier Issue, or better yet be able to purchase one for my own.

Hi Vicki!
Welcome to the Forum! Make sure to wander over to the Welcome Wagon so we all can get to know you a bit better! I am sure you are going to love the forum. All the ladies here are so sweet and helpful.
The Premiere issue of MaryJanesFarm is such a treasure! I am sure you will love reading it. Please send me an email with your information to add to the list.
Since each person is given a week with the issue, we have about 6 months worth signups right now :)

I would love to see Mary Jane reprint the premier issue again and I'm willing to prepay for the issue. With all these responses; we might get her to respond to us. Wouldn't that be marvelous! Love from Hot Nana in Newport, WA on our little slice of heaven of 20 acres!

MaryJanesFarm is not going to do a second printing of the Magazine. All of the magazines are one time printings only. The cost is too prohibitive to do a second printing. The coverprice of the Magazine is really only a drop in the bucket compared to the publishing price since MaryJane does not use Ads to pay for the magazine. While I do not know how much it costs to print each copy of the magazine or how much money has to be invested in each copy to bring us our favorite magazine, I did find this interesting article online: http://www.publishingbiz.com/html/faqstartups11.html
So if you would like to see the Premiere Issue, please email me and I would LOVE to add you to the list to see them.
Plus I think it is lots of fun to see the journal entries that come along with it! :)

Sorry Alee I didn't post until now my brain is as always addled!
I got to see the wonderful Premiere Issue a couple of weeks ago and it was well worth it, not to mention reading the journal of the Farm Girls that read it before me! A short in to the point post... Thank you Alee for organizing this for us. It I know is alot of extra work for you. Mary Jane and crew thanks again for your generosity. I loved seeing ya'lls first issue. My hubby loved it also he actually got to read it first. Sly Dog!
