What is your favorite Quilting Magazine?

Quilter's Newsletter has gone through many changes in their 45 years of publication. The first issues actually were newsletters; I still have them along with most of the issues that followed. They are quite good at keeping up with the times and aren't afraid to change and grow even without any change in the editorial staff. They have always looked to the future and that's one of the reasons I like it so much.
They have exceptional columnists covering a wide variety of topics...machine quilting, modern quilting, embroidery, appliqué, etc...and are one of the few magazines to offer challenging patterns alongside the easy ones, something that is appreciated by experienced quilters. The market is so flooded with magazines full of fast, easy, simple, quick quilt patterns that it's really nice to have one or two that have expanded options.

About a week ago someone asked what the favorite quilting magazine was an the answer from many of you was Quilting Newsletter. It sounded like a newsletter but later on I read where it was a magazine. I checked my local newsstands and could not find anything with that name. Did I get the name wrong or is it not available at newsstands. Had never heard of the magazine and wanted to check it out. Everyone seemed to think it was wonderful so I want to check it out.

I love the Block magazine from Missouri Star Quilt Company. Quick quilts and Quilters World are also good. Block is the only one I take now. There are videos on Youtube that show how to make each quilt in the book. I think that is nice too. It helps to have the book and actually see someone make it. Jenny Doan has such a nice presentation.

Quick Quilts and the Love of Quilting are my favorites. I think I must be the only one that wasn't too impressed with the Block magazine. Mine was the spring issue 2. not sure for the price I'll keep the subscription.

QNM is an amazing publication. It is packed with inspiration, stunning quilts and information tutorials. It really helps me to be more creative in my work. I like to try the skill builders in QNM.
Lots of people say it is way to skilled for them but how else do you learn and improve and especially, be creative? I certainly don't want the least skilled person as my teacher! I like to see what the best of the best do and then I can temper it to my skills.
Hope you find a copy and enjoy it. Let us know what you thiink.
