    Default Good company for stencils

    I was looking for a hand quilting stencil and found this company

    http://quiltingstencils.com/

    I called them at around 6:30 pm (my and their time) and asked a question, the lady was very helpful. I asked about shipping and she said since I was only getting one stencil, they could send it first class for a lower rate. I placed the order and the normal shipping went through, today I got a partial refund on the shipping. I like a company that does what they say they will.

    I use stencils all the time for different motifs on quilts. When I need one, they are my "go to" place 1st. Love their stncils & great customer service.

    They have been around a very long time. More than half of my stencils I have bought over the decades were made by them.

    I like when a company charges shipping depending on weight/size, or a flat rate, instead of $$ amount spent. Shipping costs are usually why I rarely shop online. Sometimes the shipping costs more than the item!

    Holice Turnbow used to be an active member on this board.... most of my stencils are from his company. I don't even know if he is active now or not?

    I believe he was banned from this Board. You can check his status under the member list.

    I have made a couple of my own stencils using an exacto. Not sure where they are right now, though!
