1.Quilter's Newsletter Magazine from: CK Media February 01, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $59.90 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $19.95 You Save: $39.95 (67%) Prices subject to change.
Just got the Sept/October 2008 issue. They are reducing issues/year to 6. What does that mean for those of us who subscribed at the old rate? Checking my address label, I got "one year" at the old rate, for a reduced number of issues. Now for the review: I have gotten this magazine for years, and I think it's the best quilt magazine around. It's a good mix of articles, ads and patterns.

2.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 ... Read More

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 having to ... Read More

4.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.

5.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.

6.Quick Quilts from: CK Media May 03, 2002

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".

7.Fons & Porter's Love of Quilting from: For the Love of Quilting
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $35.94 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $29.97 You Save: $5.97 (17%) Prices subject to change.
Fons & Porter's Love of Quilting is one of only two magazines to which I subscribe. They have a wide range of projects, from easy to challenging. There are patterns for traditional piecing, applique, wool projects, even the occasional paper piecing. They've recently added suggestions for the quilting designs. Each issue includes at least two pages of general instructions in a "tear out and save" format (for example, how to make half square triangles). At the back of the magazine, they sell complete kits for most of the projects. This magazine has been around for 25 years, and Fons & Porter are well known for their easy to understand instructions. Their beginner book is a must for all new quilters, and their TV show is very popular. This is a wonderful magazine, but you can get it for ... Read More

This publication is great for anyone who does any type of fabric arts. Full of beautiful and inspiring ideas and projects.

9.Designs in Machine Embroidery from: Designs in Machine Embroidery
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: $39.97 Prices subject to change.
Designs in Machine Embroidery magazine is a must have for machine embroiderers. Each issue is packed with great step-by-step projects-- complete with photos and illustrations, a handy pullout pattern, resource guides and information from the industry's leading machine embroidery experts. Plus, there are free designs available to download from their web site. As a novice embroiderer, this magazine has helped me overcome many of the anxieties I have had in using my machine. There are projects in every issue for a variety of skill levels and the projects are not machine specific. I simply love the magazine!
