    WHAT THE HECK did they do to her face? Is she so ugly that she has to be air-brushed into someone else? OK - done ranting now.

    I recently told DH that I will not renew a single subscription. I think I'd rather go to the book store every once in a while, have a cup of coffee, scan the mags and decide if/which one I may pick up.

    I already subscribe to several magazines -- don't know if I need another! I'm also in the process of NOT renewing subscriptions. :D

    I heard that it goes beyond airbrush!!

    That is exactly what I do. I sit at Borders and look at them, and once in a while get it only if I find something I can not live without.

    She certainly doesn't have her head on straight. LOL :lol: And she looks like she's had a little work done on the face, if you get my drift.

    I'm with you guys, not doing subscriptions right now. But I'll be sure to look it over when it gets on the shelves.

    I was noticing how Alex's facial features have changed from her first Simply Quilts shows to now. She looks like a different person. Even her nose looks different.

    I don't like AQS magazine so I doubt I'll like this one. But I'll wait and see and maybe I'll be surprised. Eleanor Burns is suppose to be publishing a magazine too. Now that will be one I'll be looking forward to.

    You're kidding me- she had work done? She was such an attractive gal - now she just looks ....fake.

    I don't have any subscriptions. Wish I did. All my home magazines have gone under. I've got subscription money to spare.

    I just can't decide on which mags are worth my time and money.

    Martina - why?? I don't subscribe to any, so I'm curious about your thoughts. Is the photo of the woman on the cover that phony???

    OMG...... if I didn't read the name I would have never know it was Alex. What the heck were they thinking her hair is longer and darker but I think she got carried away with a needle and thread and did her own face.
