    I just subscribed to this one, I like it, had bought a couple before subscribing. I just like looking at them, but have used a pattern out of one before.

    I found it takes so little time to go through the quilting magazines that I just don't spend the money anymore.

    This is one of my favorite magazines, I think they have projects that every level of quilter will enjoy. I've been gettting it for about 6 years and love it. Again, it's personal preference, hope you will enjoy it!

    I totally agree with you. I rarely make a quilt from a magazine pattern, if I do I usually change it to make it my own. I get my inspiration for my quilts from quilting magazines.

    My subscription has been allowed to end. There are beautiful quilts in this magazine but more detailed and involved than I care to make at this time. You may check your local library to see what they have. Our library has four different quilt magazines.

    I agree with you but I've decided not to renew because I've noticed that when you purchase the mag at Joanne's or book store a CD is sometimes included---this is not included when it comes in the mail.
    May sound a bit petty but it's the principal of it.

    When I first started quilting, I subscribed to a number of mags. My faves were QNM, Quiltmaker and Lady's Circle Patchwork quilts. The Lady's Circle seemed to disappear and I was so sad.
    The one I would like now is Quilting Daily. I look for mags I can learn from now and am doing more art work so this one is more worth my while and money. Also...I have EQ7...don't need but a few mags.

    You won't like everything in any of them but you will always get something out of them. I don't make a lot of the projects form the magazines but I always learn something. Tips and new items are the best. Also they usually give you different options on colors etc. I subscribe to several and love them all.

    I subscribed about 6 -8 weeks ago. Received my first issue yesterday. BUT in the 6 -8 weeks I have received 4 offers to extend my subscription. WHY would I renew or extend a subscription to a magazine I had not yet received?

    I'd suggest buying a magazine now and then from a variety of sources; as I've found it becomes repeats after a while only different colors used.. just seems a waste of money to keep subscribing to them; so I buy when I see something that appeals to me in a single magazine off the bookracks.
