Welcome...

The Country Register of Oregon is published every two months. Each issue contains a large variety of feature stories, press releases and items of interest. In addition, we "theme" each issue and give special attention to the theme in the way of extra articles and often the art work on the front cover.

The themes rotate on a yearly basis with our February-March issue being our Annual Quilting and Needlework issue. This coincides with the big quilt show held in Phoenix each spring.

Another well loved theme is our Annual Tea and Food Issue in April-May. The last three years it has been printed in time to be on display at World Tea Expo which was held in Las Vegas the end of March. Tea time fits in very well for Mother's Day also.

Our June-July issue is about Scrapbooking, Stamping, Paper Arts and other Summer Time Fun. It is the time of year our readers head to their favorite summer vacation spots and enjoy knowing about places to vist and things to do outside of their area. They also like ideas for projects to do while they enjoy the long, lazy summer days.

August-September we focus a few of our stories on Antiques and Collectibles and look forward to the day when more of the many antique and collectible shops will advertise in The Country Register. Our goal this year is to make them more aware of our services and readership.

October-November is the biggest issue of the year and focuses on special fall and winter events, arts and craft shows and crafters. The Country Register is designed to find crafters to participate in these events as well as those who attend as a customer.

In our Annual holiday issue in November-December we bring attention to the wonderful gift shops and holiday fun.

The fall of 2008 marks the 20th year Anniversary of The Country Register serving to promote specialty shopping and events. The Oregon edition began in 1992.

Summer soon to be Fall

Before we know it, summer will be past us once again. It does seem like this summer went by terribly fast. Maybe it was the late cooer srping and the first cool summer nights already that make it seem like fall is on its way.

While summer is a fun filled time with activities, fall is the beginning of serious holiday boutiques.

The shops change their decor in time to reflect back to school activities, new home and garden decor and the luscious colors of leaves that turn with the season.

Be sure and check out all of our advertising shops. They bring you the best, the latest and the greatest for yourself, for gifts and for your home.

Make this year the year to start a project such as knitting, crocheting, felting, or scrapbooking, stamping or beading. Quilting offers more projects than you will ever be able to finish along with new friendships and plenty of chances to help a good cause. They often are involved in making quilts to give to a needy cause.

Make this the season of change in your life with new interests.
