For those of us who thrive on video tutorials, we do not have a need for a magazine to explain the patterns. However, MSQC is meeting the need for those who want to have pictures and written down directions. They specifically said that they would feature blocks they have shown in their tutorials, so, "no new patterns" should not be a surprise. I don't subscribe to Block but I do applaud MSQC for meeting the needs of all types of quilters. I agree that they should have their own advertising in their magazine/book since it is their venture. I, for one, dispise advertising in magazine that would not interest me, and, in a quilting magazine, all advertising related to quilting would be delightful! I understand the concern over bias. Jenny speaks directly about bias in some of her videos, and she tries to help the quilter be less afraid of bias. I wonder if she mentions anything about this in Block? Might be a good suggestion for them to talk about bias.
