    Last week I was looking for Balerina fabric and you sent me a pic. I went to your web site and ordered over $80 worth of absolutely beautiful fabric. I will shop there often. There is themes you can't find easily right there somewhere and while your looking for it you find other must haves. Thanks!

    Wow! I like what you have done. It is simple to navagate and has all the basics. I did notice that QKO has no link so if there are more like that, how do we go to their website?
    thanks again-it looks great.

    The original idea was great, the concerns expressed warranted, your solution seems workable :thumbup:

    So I've built something for us to *try*, to see how it works. Those people who have commented on this thread (or the other related one) about having business presences, I've created a tiny blog that lists them:

    http://quiltingboard.blogspot.com/

    I thought that maybe a blog format would work, because it allows for comments (someone had mentioned that a "feedback" feature would be nice). Since I'm wary of unmoderated comments... you can comment but the comments won't show until they've been reviewed. At the moment I'm the reviewer, but I would happily share this task with any moderators or Admin.

    At this point, not very many people chimed in that they were interested in being listed, so as maintenance tasks go, this is looking pretty small to me!

    Please take a look, and let me know what you think. As I said, it's a first try, and I won't be offended by anything you might say. And again, I hope I haven't stepped on any toes by doing this. It just seems to me that there's quite a bit of interest in supporting each others' endeavors, and we shouldn't let the chance pass by.
    I just checked out the blog and I think it is greated. Thanks for listing me. I do have to admit that since I have become a member of this board my website has been getting alot more activity. Thank you everyone for checking me out.

    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.

    OK, I'm so excited. The dancer fabric that I purchased from Faborite Fabrics, got to my house in 4 days (along with the most beautiul Christmas fabric I EVER saw). Here is the picture of the purse I made for a friend for her 16 year old granddaughter. I will be ordering regularly from Favorite Fabrics. Oh, I also must mention that I was a little concerned because the fabric was cut kind of crooked but then I saw where there was a very generous amount to more than make up for the not so straight cut edge!
