I used to keep all my quilt magazines organized by the name of the magazine in chronological order. About 3 yrs ago I decided it was time to go through them, rip out the designs I thought there might be a chance I would actually make in this lifetime and toss the rest. The more I went through the more I realized that the vast majority just repeat the same patterns over & over again with the pineapple design being the most prevalent! Boy did I feel ripped off after that! It was kind of interesting seeing how much sewing machines have changed over the yrs as well as how much the price of quilt shop quality fabric has gone up, but that is not enough to make me keep renewing subscriptions & putting up with the hassle.
