February 8, 2012 at 8:22 amI was a little disappointed that you’re only interested in US editors. I feel there is great room to improve this blog with UK-specific and Australian-specific editors.

February 8, 2012 at 11:47 amI’m equally disappointed, it would be great to increase readership from the southern hemisphere, not to mention of course, Europe. Surely this is logical if revenue is based upon traffic?

February 10, 2012 at 5:21 amI fully agree with the comments made about a non-USA based editor. There are so many amazing crafters around the world that there should be an outlet for more news and views from elsewhere. Also, it appears that more and more of your giveaways are for US-based commentators only which is a great shame. I love this site and it has provided me with huge amounts of inspiration in all the crafts that I do. However, I am UK-based and would like to see more traffic, comments and posts coming from Europe and beyond.
