I was a long time subscriber to Quilter's Newsletter going back to the first when it was all in black and white, on a mimeograph machine. I still have thosse treasured issues. When they went to slick paper and color was in heaven, so many ideas and great patterns. In the late 80's they started changing and by the 90's it was not good. I stopped my subscription then, and just buy when they have an issue that appeals to me.
On Mark Lipinski, I got one issue of his Quilter's Home, and immediately called and cancelled it. Don't care for his style at all, not enough about quilting in it for me.
I love Quiltmaker and plan to subscribe to it soon.. Will be dropping Quilt when the sub runs out and maybe Fons and Porter too...
