Ive cut back on mag subscriptions since they are just eye candy for me. The patterns are usually not the easiest method to use and if Im interested in a quilt by the time I finish what Im working on Ive forgotten about that pattern. It is a big hassle to try and find a pattern in a stack of magazines so like I said they are just eye candy for me.
Fun to look forward to finding in my mailbox and spending time reading them, but have never used a pattern in one.
