Insecurity... love your name!! (Wonder what it means in terms of quilting?)

The next newsletter won't be until the beginning of July. I usually send two a month so that it won't be too "annoying". :wink:

Will you also have some interesting reading material for the weary hubby? Might help keep him happy...

Best of luck with your shop!

I love being annoyed-annoy on! We are our own worst critics...

Please include me on your list of shops. I would most definitely appreciate the support of the members here.

I just looked at your fabrics and they are so different from others that I have seen. If I can get some money together I am going to be back for the dog fabrics for sure

I would love to shop fellow board memebers, however, don't want to have to look at a bunch of worthless posts that are just trying to covertly advertise.

I love this place because I DON"T have to sort through the junk to find all the great stuff.

And Favorite Fabrics, I LOVE your Site! :)

I agree about having conditions. (As in they have had to be a member for a certain length of time and a certain consistancy in posting and then they would need to apply to admin. to have their name/shop added.) I also believe it would be nice to be able to add feedback about what we bought. - kind of like feedback on Ebay :-)

My husband says as long as a shop has a comfy place for him to sit I can look as long as I want to. Shops - keep this in mind. I have to check back on him every so often to make sure he is not snoring and disturbing other customers.

Too funny! I've "been there done that" and that's exactly why I feel I need to add a comfy sitting area! Trying to decide whether to go with a big comfy soft or just a couple of comfy chairs... hmmm... :)

I also really like the idea of having a place for LQS on this site, but I really like the idea of feedback, especially (and this should be a requirement) if you've made the quilt shop aware of any problems and you've received nothing back or were unsatisfied after trying to rectify a problem.

By the way... My LQS (hopefully coming in August) will be named Quilted Comforts.

I think a "commercial" section is a great idea, but with strict guidelines. Perhaps subsections where you could list your business under fabric, Etsy, long armers, etc.?

Nice name! Since mention was made of a sitting area ... will you have a sign there, something along the lines of "Chair Comforts"? That's not quite right. "Waiting Comforts"? You can't quite use "Patient Family Comforts" or it will sound like a health care facility...

:-)

Oh never mind...
