Why must everything be "today's news"? Yesterdays had some pretty neat stuff too. It still has the same pages now as it did before you noticed the date.

I picked up a new magazine at Walmart and it was $9.99. So maybe your magazine was discounted already, did you see the price on the magazine ?
|
I am not complaining about either the price or the date of the mag, I was just a bit surprised that the quilt shop had an outdated mag, just never thought of it, I guess. Well, I did call the shop, had a good conversation with owner and now know that this is their practice. No prob.

TBH, if I looked through a magazine and found it to be worthy of $6.99 at the time of purchase, I wouldn't feel a bit cheated if I realized it was a year old. The information in it is still just as valuable, is it not? Besides, sometimes the older magazines are harder to find! |
I've taken some of my magazines and donated them to the quilt shop as well. The quilt shop also puts out old magazines for customers to take too, which is nice.

A fabric shop near me has a weird owner. She is not patron-friendly. A young woman asked her about a quilt magazine and she wouldn't even help her to subscribe to it or any other magazine! I took the young woman aside and explained about quilt magazines, where to find them (including libraries). She was grateful and the owner was furious.

I hope I can ask this question here. I am looking for an old quilt magazine called The Quilter Magazine dated January 2004. Any ideas of where I could possibly find it. I'm not real computer savvy, but I have searched, with no results. I'm looking for the pattern Long and Winding Road. It is a bargello pattern. Any help would be appreciated.

I did a quick Google search and found it. It looks like you can buy it here: http://www.bstmarket.com/quilting/th...r_magazine.htm |
Or you could email the designer and ask to buy the pattern from her. http://www.quiltwoman.com/Patti-Carey-page-5.aspx

I've noticed that before. As long as it has a pattern I'm interested in I don't care when it was printed. My favorite magazine is the old "Quilt" that they don't print anymore. I'm always looking at shows and on the free table for them.
