Is great to see quilters making their own choices. Still the patterns need to stay in business, but use them only as guidance. Use the pattern and select your own fabrics.
I so agree with this. I think I bought & tried every technique or pattern out there. I had boxes of magazines. Eventually I found them too constricting.
I'm all over the place in my interests, so I tend to pick up a variety of Mags including, Quilting Arts, Quilters Home, Stitch, Threads & Sewing World. I find the internet the best place for inspiration thru Blogs & Google images. My style is in the "out there" category :D
