Sharon, It is the same for me. This is my guild and where I go to get my questions answered, for inspiration and ideas. Lois

It has helped me push myself to try new things and be more confident. I watch the shows over and over and I usually play several while I sew. If I am trying to explain something to someone I can usually bring up a show to help explain what I am talking about and if I want to try something new I can refer to a show to help me understand and take the steps to do it right. Two of my favorite machine applique stitches I learned from Ricky and another guest and I love bobbin work with razzle dazzle (Ricky's thread) I have gotten quick replies when needing a solution. and there have been some great discussions on the forum.

i love TQS because it is there, it teaches me so many things, the forum helps me to find out and learn things.
i had before few quilts sites, but now it seems that is the only one that i have and very happy with it.

All of the above!!! I have been with TQS from day one and have seen the growth. I love having a place to go where the "vibe" is positive. We all are part of the growth in that Ricky, Justin, Alex and John see what we want and make sure we get it. I smile when I am on this site. This site also addresses the fact that we do have a few things in our own lives that are not quilt related. We may be obsessive but we are not onesided. The Prayer List came about as a natural growth of the concern we have for our new quilting friends. We lift each other up in so many ways besides help with a square binding corner. The success of this site can be attributed to the personalities of the four who started it. I for one am thankfull they made the effort. Love to all Betty Ann

Many people don't belong to guilds, or they want more than the guilds can give them. I think we've found that here with TQS. I've made friends that I hope to have for life. I've gone outside my comfort zone to try techniques I never would have on my own.
Don't underestimate the power here on this site. Like Betty Ann said, the Prayer List came out of a mutual caring for each other; it works its magic every day.
