Quilt magazine?
#16
One year's subscription would be enough if you subscribe to a good magazine. By then you will have learnt all the basics and most magazines start to repeat themselves. I find it better to invent my own. If you have trouble with math, all you have to do is buy grid paper and cut it to your finished block size and then draw all the bits on the grid paper. Remember to add seam allowances and you're done. One of the other members mentioned the free block of the month on Craftsy.com. It is a good place for a beginner to start. You get class notes to download as well.

I've been subscribing Fons snd Porter, McCall's, American Patchwork and Quilting and Quilter Newsletter. But plan on cutting back to American Patchwork and Quilters Newsletter. It seems like the each month of the magazine have the same quilt just a different border or color. I do think if your learning Fon and Porter's magazine is good. I've also have been picking up Quilt Mania its published in France at the quilt shops I love the pictures and they have been having some pattern in them for quilts that i've looked at at quilt stores that would covered the cost of the magazine.

My absolute favorite has been Quiltmaker, but I also like Fons & Porter's Love of Quilting and McCall's Quilting. I'd like to subscribe to Australian Patchwork and Quilting, but it's a little out of my price range.

Awesome site - worth the money!
I keep my membership with Quilter's Club of America they have a lot of free patterns online and also you have free access to QNNTV with their membership and you can get a card for 10% off at Joanne's. Last time I renewed it was $29. including their mag, online service and Easy quilts. I have let my others all go because after a while where do you put the stuff and like everyone said today there seems to be unending free patterns and it seems like what you see on her is so gorgeous and you have to make every pattern you see I have a long list of want to do. Good Luck. Sue
