    I also get, the BHG one, McCalls & Quiltmaker right now. Have not renewed a few others cause I find I am not interested with much in them, &, or, have never made a quilt from them. I think it's good to try some out occasionally, & decide that way. The others, I will check out each time a new one comes out, then occasionally buy one that way. Won't have so many stacking up around the house this way either, lol...

    I'm a Quiltmaker girl. That is my only subscription. I have given myself permission to buy some when I'm going on vacation tho. Then I pass them on to a friend.

    My all time favorite quilting magazine is Quilter's World that was the second subscription I bought when I started quilting in October 2006.

    But I love MANY of the quilting mags, I have subscriptions to about 6-10 different mags at this current time.
    Some of the subscriptions I have are:

    Quilter's World
    F&P Easy Quilts
    Quilters Newsletter
    McCall's Quick Quilts

    For the life of me I can not remember them all (I am not at home to look).

    However I make sure that I keep BOTH online and print subscriptions to Quilter's World going.

    Exactly the same here! If I had to give up all but 2, these are the 2 I would keep!

    I don't really know. Right now I'm getting Fons & Porter and McCall's Quick Quilts. For awhile I let all my subscriptions lapse.
    I absolutely LOVE Australian Patchwork & Quilting and when I need one I get them on Ebay. I haven't found them locally.

    I subscribe to Fons... I also get the Ricky Tims/Alex Anderson one - big disappointment for me. Gave it away the same week I got it.

    I use the Quiltmaker magazines that my mom kept. She has a few others, but I find QUiltmaker the easiest for me to follow. Never bought any others, just look for free patterns or come up with my own

    Quilting Arts Magazine, hands down. I have no interest in patterns or copying other people's ideas. QA is all about sharing techniques that can be applied to any style of quiltmaking, not just art quilts.
