I love that I can come read about what everyone else is doing and get help/encouragement when I need it .. I rarely can get out of the house and I have no one to talk quilts with so this is my happy place to go. :)

It is so nice to visit a place where people are always willing to help and share. Whether it be information, hugs, prayers, pats on the back, or even sharing of real items it soothes my soul and makes my heart smile.

i couldn't agee more! This board is awesome.

I feel like all of the members are friends. Any time there is a problem, many members answer. I love reading everyone's posts, and usually start my day by reading the QB. Love all you guys.

I do not have any friends that quilt... and my closest family is 550 miles away. The board gives me a community of quilters that I would not have without it.

im thankful for this board because i learn so much here. when i started reading this board i would never make anything without a pattern and now its rare for me to even use a pattern. i read stuff here and come up with my own ideas and layouts and if something doesnt work i just try something different. i get so much encouragement from people here and theres so much knowledge here theres no reason to get frustrated just ask and someone will tell you how to make it work. now if i could just finish all those ufo's lol. oh well no one is perfect right ??

I love the sharing and caring also. Especially the inspiration by looking at the beautiful works of others whether it's a quilting project or a sewing project.

Thank you!

Reasons why I enjoy the board -
I love seeing so many new quilt designs, tools, and techniques.
It is wonderful to see so many people starting their post by saying "I'm a new quilter."
I've met some wonderful people in real life because they were members of the board.
I've been alerted to fabulous sales.
I feel happy when I can occasionally answer a question.
I started my pattern business because of encouragement on the board.

In a nutshell: generosity.

It has become my best friend, (better), I get my coffee in the morning and read the QB. The info, the pictures, the sharing and generosity is the best. Whether I am at home or away I never miss visiting with all of you.

I have friends, they don`t quilt,and I want to learn. This is the place!! I love all the different slants on subjects, they are so cute some times. Some times I wish I could meet every one of you, I know we would have some thing in common. Subjects range from ...my beloved animals...to my beloved gardens, to many family interests. And then quilting. Some times there are sad things (I wish I could help you) and then funny things we all live with. How can anyone ask for anything more?
