Thank you for the positive feedback about requests. They can never hurt. They ARE counted by category and noted. The response is "canned" but they do matter. Every vote counts. If we remain silent and only complain to each other, nothing will be accomplished. They just haven't gotten the clue that quilting has become big business and they definitely do care if we vote with our pocketbooks. We go in for a yard of fabric and leave the store with a cart full of groceries.
