yep, they have been repeats, and overruns of the same EQ established quilts for years now....Even quilter's newsletter is now full of rubbish....I would love it to go back to being a NEWSletter...full of information about the industry, shows, etc....I quit taking all but 2 and they are ending this year..finally...

Yep. When renews have come due, I have not renewed. They need to make them available online. Add quilts that are not 100"s of dollars to make. Make them fun and simple. Quilters with experinece can add or take away steps to make them theirs.

I agree. I stopped taking any magazines a couple of years ago. Just too much on the web that's free. I still like to look through them but go to my stash that's grown for years! Also check some out at the library

I have Quilters World also and love it. Best thing is that when e-patterns on line has a new quilt design, it's usually in a back issue of Quilters World. If you get the magazine, you can download the e-pattern for free. Love it.
