Default Quilters Newsletter

I was saddened when I learned Quilters Newsletter was being discontinued. I didn't realize how much I would miss it until reading through the 20 or so issues that my daughter bought at a quilter's estate sale. No other magazine (at least as far as I have seen) includes so many different topics.

It is inspiring to hear about the many quilt shows across the world with a list of the winners with photos of their quilts and a brief biography. Reading about the history of quilting through the years has enlightened me. 300 Words About Quilting gives me insight to other quilters and their thoughts, dreams, successes, failures. It makes me realize how we quilters are so diverse and yet the same.

Staff Picks, Back Track, Workshop, Shows, Thomas Knauer, Pam Rocco will all be missed.

How do you all feel about the demise of this wonderful magazine? And do you know of any magazine currently available that publishes even half of the content Quilters Newsletter gave us?
