    I have some real oldies... one called "Grandmother's Patchwork Quilt Designs" 1931, another called " Grandmother's Authentic Early American Patchwork Quilts" 1932 and "Quilt Patterns Patchwork and Applique" 1928. These are all very thin, very well used magazines given to me by a relative on my husband's side, when she was in her 80's.

    Edited: they are all printed in St. Louis, Mo

    My hubby bought a huge box of quilt magazines as a gift. LOVED it! Anyway there is a McCalls Block Encyclopedia from 1962 in the box. LOL It's like a coloring book for quilt addicts and I just love it. :)

    The oldest I have is probably three years old. I don't keep them much longer than that but sometimes I find one at a yard sale that is years old so I'll buy it for a dime. I try not to keep a big stack of magazines. They all seem to repeat themselves every couple of years.
