I will definitely shop from both of these businesses in the future! Really NICE people!! Have you found some extra special businesses that go the extra mile and that you are happy with? It would be nice to see some listed in the Comments... we could all benefit, eh?
Until next time. . . I have some more binding to sew on [I love to bind!]. What are you up to today?

Oh Cyn. We must be long lost cousins or something. I LOVE to sew binding! Wow you met up with some good people.
My favorite on-line folks are Fat Quarter Shop and Whittles. Both have amazing service. They answer questions right away, are happy to tell me what I can't see on-line (like which of these combos go together best, or how large are those flowers?)
What are you using the Marti Michelle templates for? I hear good things about them, and have a few.
Very positive post. I like to do binding, too. It means I'm almost finished making a quilt : )
I like to bind and have found that it is a good project to do while riding in the car. I have always had a good experience with Fat Quarter Shop and Fabric Shack over in OH. I've also ordered through quiltshops.com and have had good luck with everyone there. I really like those charm packs!
I love binding, too! I love making the bias binding, and attaching it. :)
Vicki from the Quilting Lodge is the BEST! Fast, friendly, professional, and SO HELPFUL! I've used two of her tutorials with great success, as well! I'll go back there, to be sure.
Avoid Fabric.com. At all costs.
Great additions to your stash and Vicki from the Quilting Lodge does a fantastic job! I recently bought a wire frame from Fons & Porter that was damaged and they were very nice and fast about replacing it. Thanks for sharing.

I love doing binding too. So glad you had some good shopping experiences.
So good to hear of positive shopping experiences! Can't wait o see what you're doing with the templates. I love, love, love her hexagon sets!!
And thanks for linking to my post the other day!! So fun to *meet* your followers! :-)
Great post Cyn. Very positive. You're right, most folk will moan about a bad experience but not trumpet a good one.
I have many favourite online shops, one of them is Stitchingpostquilts.

so what are your plans for the charms?
Online shopping is really good for all to make more easy to get any products and you can giving really nice information about online shopping.
As a former manager of a chain retail fabric store, I so appreciate your acknowledgement of good customer service, be it online or in person. Rarely did I have the pleasure of hearing compliments instead of complaints. By the way, I too (as many others) enjoy binding my quilts. It is so relaxing.

Good for you!! I've often said the same thing ... we're quick to report negatives, and complacent about sharing great experiences!! Glad you had some *great* experiences -- thanks for sharing them! :)
