Magazines here are around 6 dollars. I do enjoy buying a magazine now and then , because I have not bought fabric ,patterns for at least a year . I never buy any other types of magazines either . I also refuse to buy one that you can not see what is in it due to the plastic . An occasional magazine is a treat for me but I also want to see what I am buying . We all should e-mail Fons and Porter , they are the ones that do this the most .
