I was wondering how many shop/online stores etc. that we have on here. I'm sure there is more than just me that would like to support these business' of the members here. Maybe we can get a list together for people to visit and support.

Especially with vaca time on us. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to stop in, support and meet another member.

Just a thought. :-D

I like your thinking, Sewcrafty! I would much rather support a fellow board member if I can! C'mon everyone, this is your chance for a shameless plug for your business! :lol: :lol:

CarrieAnne 06-17-2010 07:29 AM

Yes, me too! I would love to support the people here first!

purplemem 06-17-2010 08:11 AM

Me too! Please list your info, I love to order online!

debbieumphress 06-17-2010 08:35 AM

Me too..me too. I love to shop and spend money so it may as well be for fellow board members. When you guys post, I will make a list and try by best. Wahooooooo, can't wait to start.

sewcrafty 06-17-2010 08:42 AM

Maybe we could get Admin to have a special section that was, can't think of the term, but at the top of a page so we could access it. :-D Getting old, brain not working!!! :lol: :lol:

Lori S 06-17-2010 08:51 AM

I am in complete agreement. Support the members!

GrammaNan 06-17-2010 08:52 AM

I would absolutely support our members if I knew who they were.

Favorite Fabrics 06-17-2010 08:55 AM

What a kind and practical suggestion!

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

I just checked out your site! I love your fabrics. Expect future orders from me also! A while ago I was looking for dragon fabric for a quilt for my grandson and settled for a fabric that you can't really tell it is dragons unless you look closely and what do you know, I found the perfect dragon fabric on your site! I'm angry because I've already made his quillt! I'm also addicted to Moda Marbles and like I said--expect future orders from me! I have a shortcut to your site on my desktop.

I haven't purchased yet, but when I was looking for snowboard fabric for a friend, you sent me a link to some at your site and my friend ordered it. She says it is beautiful. I'm on my way over now to look at it and see what we can find to go with it for a quilt for her grandson.

Went to your online shop..loved it, and started a new folder in my Bookmarks called Quilt Forum Shops. Yours is the first one on there.

AWESOME idea!! I would definitely order from the businesses of our members.

ToucanSam 06-17-2010 11:17 AM

I've order from charmpacksplus, was very happy with her!

Favorite Fabrics 06-17-2010 12:28 PM

Just a though... there are probably a LOT of members with stores. What if, as part of the listing, you could include a brief mention of what the store specializes in, such as batiks, novelties, historical, contemporary, kits, pre-cuts, basics, etc.?

It might be helpful!

MamaBear61 06-17-2010 02:11 PM

I have ordered from "Favorite Fabrics" and was very pleased with both the product and the service. I like this idea of us being able to support our friends here.

DebbyT 06-17-2010 03:17 PM

I travel and like to know where the quilt shops are. If a list is available I know I would change my line of travel to check out a new experience.

Joeysnana 06-17-2010 03:37 PM

I have ordered from charmpacksplus and was very happy.

You have a great website! I'll be checking it regularly.

How about : Quilting Board Online Retailers
Pretty straightforward and we'd all know what it was.

I have an ETSY shop that I am starting up, along with a blog that will be about the 1930's fabrics. It's there but I have alot of work to do on it. I hope to list some items within the next couple weeks. Will update when it's ready.

I, also just visited your web site. It's terrific and I look forward to placing an order in the not too distant future. I really love the dragons.

dar627742 06-18-2010 01:29 AM

Quilt4u 06-18-2010 01:42 AM

Me too Love to surport.

tmg 06-18-2010 01:46 AM

I would buy from them to. Only thing I need to know who you are.

Extreme Quilter 06-18-2010 03:49 AM

Favorite Fabrics, I just discovered your site and am ecstatic. Your offering of fabrics is fabulous and I can't wait to place my first order!

katsewnsew 06-18-2010 03:58 AM

Great idea! I would support board members, also. Admin. should have a place for these, too.

watterstide 06-18-2010 04:24 AM

I too would like some kind of list of quilt shops.

love2quilt... 06-18-2010 04:52 AM

You have an amazing collection of fabrics for children. I have you bookmarked for future purchases!

reach for the stars 2 06-18-2010 04:56 AM

Me too.

knlsmith 06-18-2010 05:31 AM

it's a great idea, but there should be a strict rule that anyone who wants to be included on the list should have a lot of posts and contributions first.

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! :)

sueisallaboutquilts 06-18-2010 05:57 AM

What a great idea!!
Favorite Fabrics, I just bookmarked you!! :D

Honey 06-18-2010 05:57 AM

I have purchased from Marsye and just loved her blocks. I am going to be making baby quilts out of them. I will be buying many, many more. And it was service with a big smile!!

quiltedrunner 06-18-2010 05:59 AM

The people on this site are amazing. The support just right here in this thread is truly wonderful. I'm working at opening a LQS in ND, hopefully by August. I will post more info as it becomes available. But... we will be a "full service" quilt shop with online shopping as well. We will also carry some gift items for those that are not quilters. I live in a small town of about 2000 people, so need to be a little diverse.

However, I also plan to have a small play area for kids and also a couple of VERY comfy chairs and sitting area for anyone wanting to just come in and visit, take their time shopping, or for the weary hubby who is waiting. :)

I'll post more as I get closer to opening... and I would LOVE to meet each and every one of you in my shop or otherwise! HUGS to you all.
