I went to my Library to return some books and of course get some new ones. On the way out, I checked the free magazine bin. People bring in their magazines from home and you can take as many as you'd like. I brought home at least a dozen 'quiltmaker' magazines and a few BHG quilt magazines. I left many more there for the next person to get lucky too. By the way, when I am done with them, I will return them for someone else to pick up!.

Makes me wonder if our library does that too!

When you find that pattern that makes you want to keep the magazine, scan it instead and return the magazine uncut.
