Personally, I don't think the magazine is the same quality as just a couple of years ago.
Another disconcerting thing is if you want to buy a kit from them. You have to buy the magazine to go with it! I think if you buy a kit you should get the pattern with it!
Also, I think it's a bit much to use another manufacturer product, put your own name on it and then sell it for twice as much! I don't like paying someone to advertise for them!
I think they are getting a bit too "MARTHA STEWART" for my taste.

I know this isn't regarding Fons & Porter but I found the same problem with "Piecework" Magazine. I had found some old copies of the magazine that my motherhad and thought,"Wow, this is a great mag.."So I ordered it, hoping to get the same quality and quantity of information. Boy, was I ever disappointed! The magazine was half the size and FULL of advertising. I sent back the invoice and did not subscribe.I was glad I got a look before having to pay.

Has anyone been to K-mart lately? Everyone in Illinois is thinking of calling it Martha,s Stewart,s. You cant go in a store without seeing her name anywhere. I remember when you could buy a pair of drapes, now all you can buy is a panel, for the same price. Now she is in our quilting stores. When will it quit?
