Tracey Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I haven't been around the forum much at all lately and I miss it and all the wonderful support, encouragement, and love here. You are all wonderful people!!!!!! Tracey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmwife Darlene Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I don't post a lot on the forum but I read it everyday - most of the time more than once! I, too, purchased my Millie because of this forum and it was truly the first forum I"d ever joined on the net. The caring, friendly people here are so genuine and appreciated. You encourage, you help others, you share - exactly what families do. We are family here and I'm proud to call you my friends. Thanks for everything y'all!!

QuiltFaerie Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I also just pop in here once in a while but read a lot more. This forum was a deciding factor for me in buying my Millie. What also really impressed me was that any with any brand of machine could post a question and get help. If that doesn't speak multitudes about this forum I don't know what does. While we all have a few minor disagreements from time to time, this forum is very rare in that rarely are there any p*ssing matches like I see in other forums. I also don't see "my machine is superior to your machine" junk. I wish we could all meet face to face, as you are all wonderful people and I would like to get to know you all better. Maybe APQS should host a conference? How much fun would that be? Shanna, your news sounds very exciting! I cannot wait to hear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlhdesigns Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Shana ...... you are soooo right. I love this forum and all the friends I have made near and far. This is going to be exciting......:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lnieland Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I've hung around here for a while now, but just recently started posting - at least on a semi-regular basis, and I do have to say it's one of the best groups I've been involved in. I feel more welcomed here than I have at our local quilt guild! I also feel like I know many of you (that's what comes from lurking!) better than I know many of my neighbors. It's a good feeling, and I too thank you for all the help and support you give. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Front Porch Quilting Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 What would we do without our wonderful forum and all the wonderful people that make it so??? Big hug to everyone!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogiquilter Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 This is such a great forum!

carolinequilts Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I also just pop in and out and mostly read, but I always, always come here first when I have a problem. Everyone is so helpful! It is like having a big happy family - and the bonus is that we all have the same addiction! Luv ya Shana! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marycontrary Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 This forum is the absolute best. I have learned so much. Everyone is so willing and open and giving and sharing with their knowledge, both about the machines and quilting techniques. You should see how full my "favorites" is with this knowledge! And I haven't even mentioned all the personal caring about each other! I love it here. Thanks and love to all of you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibbyG Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I, for one, would not be the longarmer I am today if it wasn't for everyone on this forum helping me. The best thing I ever did, was take a class from DeLoa Jones who introduced me to the machine and this wonderful forum. I feel blessed to be part of the most generous, kind, amazing and caring people...BAR NONE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitaR Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I so appreciate the friends on this forum... Have learned muches.. prayed for many, cried for many, laughed with joy for many, and if not said before, thank everyone on this forum for information. Even questions asked by others, help many, as they had just not asked the question yet.. God Bless and care for you all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phyllis Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I love this forum. I read it daily: pray, laugh and cry with all of you but don't do a lot of replying. Pretty much a silent member. I don't think that you'll find too many places where there is so much care and concern for other members. It is much appreciated by me.

Bekah Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Well there certainly isn't much I can add. I too made the decision to go with APQS because of the forum. It let me know that this company had to be the best if all these wonderful people were here to encourage, support and listen to any problem, whether with life or our machine. I don't get to stop by and post as much as I used to and some days don't even get to read, but you are all on my mind. thank you for everything. Especially for being the best family a person could have. You all mean a lot to me. And as soon as I figure out how to get a picture here from my new puter and camera I have one for you all to give me ideas on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawn Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I don't post that often but have learned so much from all of you. Whenever I have a question everyone is so generous to share their knowledge. I agree with everyone this is the best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyAboutQuilting Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I agree with all of you! I feel like I am in withdrawal when we're gone for a few days or when "life" gets in the way. This is the most welcoming, helpful, caring group that I have ever belonged to and yep, this is what it means to be "family". Warm ((((((hugs))))))) to all of you from coldddddddddd Minnesota! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linda G. Craig Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Shana, you said it so well, and I agree whole heartedly. There are forums and then there is this forum......there really isn't anything like this one out there. Questions, Answers, Prayers, Celebrations, Tragedies.......we share them all and become stronger people because of our friends here. Luv ya!
