I have always enjoyed sitting down in my favorite chair with a magazine to read or a book. I have bought close to a hundred used quilt magazines from years past. I would buy more if they became available. I have gone through these magazines many times and have used few of the patterns. I do see that magazines are getting pricier just like everything else. I did subscibe to one quilt magazine this year and waiting for the first issue. The price on it was much lower than some and had other quilters sa it is a good magazine....we will see. I like the idea of going to Barnes and Noble, having a cup of coffee and look at the quilt magazine. Hope they don't mind.
