I have family in several different states, a brother in washington state, havent seen him in 11 yrs, a sister in Texas, havent seen her in 9 yrs, and brother and sisters in Pa, Mo, and Kansas.. So as you can see Facebook is a god send here I can keep up with my family no matter where they are... BUT the QB is my favorite place to be..LOL

still do fb, but starting to dwindle since i found this. love all the positive things and helping each other. :)

I like them both. Facebook is a good way to stay in touch with the kids, grandkid and of course friends all over the US.
But I've spend more time on this board, learning new stuff and the list of my to-do list is getting longer every time I am on here. lol.

I pop into fb to keep up with family and friends, but come here and stay for hours.......guess which i prefer..

I use both, but since I've joined the QB I s[end most of my time on here.

I like fb to keep up with family and friends. I spend much more time on here. I love reading tips and seeing what other quilters are doing!

I don't even own a facebook page. I figure all of the people I want to stay in contact with, I do. And the rest I don't think need to know my business. I love this place,..... my husband told me that I am addicted. I told him, no...I just love the wonderful helpful nice people and that keeps me happy :-)


added later....but I do know once my kids are teens I will have to have facebook to keep track of what they aren't telling me :-)

Same here.

I've never been on Facebook and have no desire to do so.

I FB some but like this board much better. My SIL started using FB to tell everyone about our family and now I don't care for it. I do like that friends and classmates from the past can connect again on FB.
I find quilters make the best friends.
