Magazines run in cycles for me. I've subscribed to American Patchwork and Quilting for several years, but the last few issues haven't interested me much, so I'm going to let that subscription lapse. I think Fons and Porter has been the best ever from the 2012 issues forward, so I just started a new subscription with them. And McCalls (which is totally new to me) offered a great deal, so I'm also starting a subscription with them. I agree that your best bet is to browse through different magazines at your local stores and decide for yourself which one(s) you'll get the most out of.
