I'm old-fashioned and really love books and magazines, especially old ones. But after getting back into quilting and expecting to find magazines that were filled with great patterns and pictures of quilts to inspire me, I am rather disappointed. They all seem to have pictures of nearly the same quilts (the same fabrics and colors, anyway), and pages and pages of ads. I can understand the cost of producing a magazine must be high, but if one has to sacrifice the magazine content just to produce it, it doesn't seem worth it. I think I'm not going to subscribe to any now that I've seen what little there is inside.
