1.Vogue Knitting International from: Soho Publishers
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $23.96 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $19.00 You Save: $4.96 (21%) Prices subject to change.
There are a number of knitting magazines on the market, but only two that are top notch--and this is one of the two. As a knitter, I can't possibly be without either one. The patterns are elegant, the articles relevant and the ads are for the top of the line yarns, books and knitting accessories. You're not a knitter without this subscription!

I learned how to quilt from scratch in 2000. At that time, there were few night classes offered in my area for working people, but this magazine helped me learn how to quilt anyway. I appreciate how they rate each project (easy, intermediate, advanced) and show a second colorway to consider. Sometimes they also show an alternate setting (like making a 1 ft wall hanging from a larger quilt.) The section on "gizmos and gotta haves" is really interesting and shows the latest stuff - not stuff that's "old news" or has been around for a while. This magazine usually has one or two paper pieced projects, too. If you've never done paper piecing before, Quiltmaker is a good place to learn how. I also enjoy the finished photos sent in by other readers - it's like a quilt guild show and tell without ... Read More

Just received magazine yesterday. Had several good items to knit. Hope the rest of the magazines have as much good stuff.

4.Interweave Knits from: Interweave Press
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $27.96 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $25.00 You Save: $2.96 (11%) Prices subject to change.
Great magazine, informative articles, but just be aware it is heavily slanted toward sweaters and tops, less so on accessories or smaller projects. It's also a lot cheaper to subscribe directly from Interweave's website.

5.McCall's Quilting from: CK Media February 01, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $35.94 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $19.98 You Save: $15.96 (44%) Prices subject to change.
This is a great magazine because it offers a great number of patterns in each issue and it has a nice balance of background information and interesting articles. Each pattern and technique offered in this magazine is complete with concise directions, often including pictures and diagrams. This magazine is well worth buying and even subscribing to.

6.CRAFT: Transforming Traditional Crafts from: Oreilly Media % Heather Harmon
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $59.96 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $34.95 You Save: $25.01 (42%) Prices subject to change.
A lot of the reviewers here have mentioned problems with one cover story. Don't let that put you off this mag. It and its sister mag MAKE are great. They show a different look at the craft industry than you get when you look in chains like Michaels and Hobby Lobby. Craft and diy are huge and it's not all about scrapbooking and decorative painting. There are heaps of indi crafters doing great things and who, until now, have been largely hidden from mainstream consumers. CRAFT gives these people a platform to showcase their stuff - and it is great - the only pity of it is that in publicising these new takes on old crafts indi is now becoming mainstream! Go figure. Do yourself a favor and check out the magazine - there is plenty to look at and to enjoy. There are things that provoke you to think about materials ... Read More

I am new to quilting, and am trying to help my church make quilts for charity. Working full time, I thought this might be a great help. Maybe these are quick quilts for those with a lot of experience, but it's not quick for my purposes. It may have also been my mistake by equating "quick" to "easy".

8.American Patchwork & Quilting (1-year) from: Meredith March 01, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $35.94 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $24.97 You Save: $10.97 (31%) Prices subject to change.
I have found American Patchwork and Quilting to be among the best in quilting magazines. I love every issue. The articles are informative and the patterns are simply wonderful. Not every issue will please every reader, but this one comes close.

9.Threads from: Taunton Press
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $41.94 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $32.95 You Save: $8.99 (21%) Prices subject to change.
This magazine is mostly aimed at making clothing/wearables and is slick with lots of great pictures. Not for everyone, but like all Tauton publications it is sophisticated and has those articles many other magazines don't cover. Often the articles will cover how designers construct clothing or how great past designers such as Coco Channel changed design, imagined color, constructed their clothing, etc. There are also many imaginative embellishments and views of great vintage clothing. Perhaps not for everyone but has its place and is a feast for the eyes.

10.Sew News from: Ck Media Llc
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $47.92 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $23.98 You Save: $23.94 (50%) Prices subject to change.
Covers a wide variety of sewing projects and techniques. I subcribed to this magazine for many years, but stopped because sadly I hardly have time to sew anymore and prefer to crochet because I can take it with me. Aimed at the homesewer interested in honing skills or looking for a fun project. This is a helpful publication for beginners but also has aricles and projects to suit more advanced sewers. Also covers latest/useful products. There is a good reason this magazine has been a favorite of sewers for years.
