I always go through the ones at the news stand as well with the prices they charge I don't want to get it home and find out there's nothing I like. My husband and sister were very nice this year they both got me a subscription to different magazines. American Quilter and the McCall's quilting magazine and of course Ms. Paula Deen! So the only one's I really purchase this year are my Fons and Porter ones, I might ask for that one next yr!
