Recommend you go to a bookstore or newsstand and take a look at all the different magazines. Buy a couple that appeal most to you. Also check out their online sites, that can give you a good preview of what each offers. My Fav are BHG American Patchwork & Quilting and McCalls Quilting. Love the Australian mags too.

My current favorite is Quiltmaker because they have hand embroidery options from time to time in addition to the usual offerings.

I did an on-line subscription to Quiter's World. you paid for one year and got access to two additional years from their archives. I thought it was a pretty good deal.

Fons and Porter and Quiltmaker.

I have discovered that the measurements for patterns in FP's are not accurate.

Agree with trying them at the library or buy a couple before you invest in a subscription. McCalls is more traditional and I think their directions are very clear. Some of the magazines are very artsy. Just depends on what type quilts you are interested in.
