I am partial to McCalls Quilting and to Better Homes and Garden's Quilting and Patchwork
May not be accurate in naming them, easy to find though.

We have no BIG selection of magazines in the small town where I live.. The big city stuff would be almost a 3 hrs drive each way..... headed to the library this afternoon to see if they have some. They do not have any listed on their website/catolog.
I have virtually given up magazines as a whole, WAY yo many ads and junk in them, but was considering a quilting one, if I find one that suits me.

I like Quilter's Newsletter and Quiltmaker. Quiltmaker does a good job with suggestions for quilting and has great illustrations and instructions. Quilter's Newsletter has a whole different approach but it carries pictures of some of the big show winners which are fun to look at. It's not so much a "how to" magazine.

Did that too, I love having them available at anytime and not losing the magazine itself or accidentally spilling something on it :)

Quiltmaker helps with different techiniques and has alot of patterns. You can also go on Ebay anf buy Older mags. I find the older 1985-2000 to be very informative, especially Quilters Newsletter. You can get a group of 10 for about $6.00 plus shipping. That to me is more reasonable then paying $25.00 for a catalog from Fons and Porter.

I have recently purchased my first quilt magazine subscription and it is for Quick Quilts. I have gotten many of their magazines off the shelves at stores and I like their patterns.

I used to have subscriptions to American Patchwork and Quilting, Fons & Porter, and Quilter's Newsletter. I only have American P & Q, now. F&P just started bugging me for some reason and QN got WAY political. Well, I buy quilting magazines for quilting, not politics. Plus, if I want to read the ones I dropped I can do that at the library. Seldom do I buy a quilt magaziine anymore. I think I have too many projects (100s!) I want to do and haven't gotten to yet.

If there is a book you like - try Amazon.com - you can get them used for next to nothing usually
