Oh, no! Yes, I'm a magazinaholic and admit it! Over the last 10 yrs I've subscribed or regularly bought at newsstand, almost all. I think almost all have patterns--it's the # and types that vary some. I still get Quiltmaker and American Patchwork (think that is from little church friends school magazine sales and I renew every year) and on my "trying out" yr on Quilting Arts. I'm enjoying Quilting Arts although not likely I'll do any of the projects, but like the info on using different media. My SIL and I talk about trying some of the dying and paint techniques this summer after vaccinated. I like Quiltmaker always shows quilting designs on each quilt. And they also they show some fabric requirements on a few quilts of Accuquilt die use. American Patchwork occasionally does that too.
I loved Modern Patchwork and Modern Quilting but both went kaput and the "parent" company is doing more modern in their magazine. I took a long arm mag and loved it but it too went under. I liked Quilters Newsletter too as it had patterns with quilting design ideas and and actual news on the industry. Never made any of their quilts, but loved the Irish Quilting mag--beautiful photos. I'd suggest if for you, first buy some off the newsstand and see which ones you are most attracted too.
