I was on FB all the time before I found this board. I even got addicted to Farmville- yikes. Now - I'm sure most of my FB friends wonder where I am as I am almost always here-LOL!

Same here, but I only play Lexulous on Facebook, most of the time I am here as there is so much to catch up on each day or so.

I like how easy it is to connect with family on FB, but more often than not, I find that my nieces and nephews are not the "angels" I thought they were when I read their posts and it is a bit disappointing.

I really don't use FB for more than catching up on what my close friends and family are doing, so when I want to talk about quilting, this is the place I come... not FB.

I'm in the same boat as you, except I was "addicted" to bejeweled blitz ;)

I do FB as well as QB, mainly cause i have family interstate and it is easier to chat to them. They aren't quiling patchwork nuts like me so i have both running. :)

I love the support, friendship, encouragement, inspiration and the wealth of knowledge everyone brings to the table .... what a grand banquet among friends!! ;-)

Are there others out there like me? Just curious.

Happy quilting!!

O.M.G! I was just telling my DH earlier that I hardly ever go to FB anymore!

Me too, I spend a LOT less time on FB now that I found QB.
