I love the quilters world magazine. It allows you to have a digital version you can download to your computer. You then get the last 5 years of their magazine. 2nd I love the ease of their patterns. Even if it is a tough pattern they will walk you through how to make it.

I suscribe to over 5 and to me the best is Quilt Maker. The directions are accurate-they do not push fabric kits. The patterns are on all levels and they use different techniques-paper piecing, applique and patchwork. Great articles and tutorials.

Welcome to the wonderful craft of quilting. It's addictive, for sure!
For simple great looking patterns, I like Quiltmaker and QUILT magazine.
I quilted a Greek Key quilt designed by Kaffe Fassett, that's in the current issue of QUILT, and it's all straight sewing, rectangles and squares, and turns out looking fabulous.
