Hi, Just a quick note to let you know that I received my website order today (sorry do not know order number - it was $26.69). I ordered the celestial fabrics on 5-17 and they were delivered so fast (today). We love the prints - they are super! Please tell those who were responsible for cutting and shipping that we thank them for the smooth transaction and delivery.

 Hi Carol I received the package with the biofreeze in it. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I took it over to my mom's last night and used it on her, and she was amazed because it seemed to be helping her right away (within 5 minutes) and was so happy that I had thought to order it. Thank you so much for sending it out quickly. And what a surprise to find the gift certificate. You really shouldn't have, I fully expected to pay for the product. Thanks again! Now I have a real problem, trying to figure out what I can't live without on your web site, but you know, I will enjoy shopping with it. You are one of the few shops that treats customers this way, I hope you know. It only encourages me to spend my quilting money at your site. God loves you Carol, Thanks again.

My son says it's okay to go to your store again, he had something to do while Grandma and Mom went fabric crazy ! Thank you so much for being so friendly and helpful ... I may just have to move to Vermont! LOL Happy Stitching!

Dear Carol, Received my fabrics last night and was so overwhelmed... they were so beautiful. I'm going to try my hand at snippet quilts since I don't sew. I feel like it's painting with fabric. You have so many choices that I have more ideas floating around in my head. Thank you again. (I'm thinking of all the pictures I can start making for Christmas presents.) Are you familiar with snippet quilting and do you have any advice??

Carol - Thank you very much for the animal print material. That was just what I wanted. It will be the finishing touch on my DH bed quilt. Thank you for the speed of my order. I know you were in "busy mode". The speed of my order getting to me was great. Will see you soon.

Hi Carol, It's been some time since I've thanked you for the wonderful batiks I get every month in the mail. They are so wonderful. This month was especially fun. And since I'm home all week now with no wheels I have something to look forward to. You're just the best. Big Hugs, Syl

Dear Carol, I received my "first" but not my "last" order from you today. My older brother had to retire early due to his health. Now "himself" has nothing to do after he sends his wife and daughter off to work but sit around and read all day, and lord forbid he may get a chill, so my 2 sisters decided that I would make him a quilt (wasn't that nice of them. little do they know this takes away "their" quilting time). Even though we are only 1/4 Irish my brother has this fixation with the Irish culture, so deciding what "theme" his quilt would be came easy. I had on hand beautiful emerald green fabric and a beautiful cream, gold and emerald fabric that I planned to use to make appliquéd Celtic designs, but I could not find anything for a border. I went online used "Celtic fabric" as my search word and there was your site and I'm verrrry happy. The material is more than anything I could ever imagine. It is more than perfect. It came so quickly, so perfectly folded and the "thank you" on your label was the icing on the cake. You will be hearing from me in the near future...maybe if my sisters are good to their older sister (me) I may make them a little something extra this year. Thanks again for you wonderful store.

Hi Carol, I had a problem with my e-mail this week, so didn't get to read your message until yesterday. Even better, the fabric arrived today! I am very pleased with the quality of it, your prices, and the excellent service. Thank you for a good experience and look for me to order again.

Dear Carol, My order arrived today, and as usual, reminded me that some things (like your extraordinary service and attention to detail) never change, even in these chaotic times! Getting a package from you (and knowing that the fabrics will be neatly ironed and folded inside) reminds me of how I felt when my Mom would send cookies to me while I was in college!! I am so grateful for the service you provide, and for the wonderful fabrics you carry. You are THE original material girl. Madonna, eat your heart out!

Hi Carol, I was thrilled with my order (reference # 1670-7857-3119). I appreciated your sending the 1 yard of antique train fabric that you had in stock. Is there any chance at all that you will re-stock that particular fabric? If not, do you have any recommendations as to where I may be able to find more of that particular fabric? I love the book of sea and shore designs. I will be able to design a Halibut pattern using your techniques. My son is crazy about fishing for Halibut. I can also do a take-off on your designs to make a pieced, Bayliner fishing boat. These are very common up here in Alaska. Great help! Thanks again for your great website, fabrics, patterns, and service!

Quiltaway-- Fabric received! I thank you and President Bush thanks you for helping me infuse my tax return back into the economy! --Susan Barrett SoobyB@aol.com 

 Hi Carol Several months ago I wrote you about your Mile-A-Minute article in AQS mag and how it helped me in the process of working thru some crises I was experiencing at the time. Well, instead of cutting squares from the newly created fabric and sashing it, I sewed all the pieces together and made a 62"x79" top and quilted it with primary variegated rayon thread in a meander stitch and just won an Honorable Mention in our quilt show this weekend. Thank you. Mary Gillette hdgmmg@internet8.net

Hi Carol, I received my order WITH the long yard special and wanted to thank you for your kindness and for the lovely fabric. Your store makes me wish I could shop more. Thank you . Judy Wallace email: qlts@mint.net Hello again, Please feel free to use the email I sent in your customer column. I really appreciate your friendly, caring attitude and your nifty shop. Thanks again, Judy

Just wanted to let you know the fabric arrived already! Thank you. It is wonderful! I am starting a crazy quilt and I am going to tuck little fishies in here and there to remember the wonderful man I am dating. He is a fish breeder by avocation. The quilt is going to be really neat I think. I have not made one before, but my first two blocks have been so much fun. Thank you for sending the fabric out so promptly. And for the hugs. May God bless you now and always Elizabeth irishred@fgi.net

Carol, My, a quick order, and a hug to boot! What more could one ask for? Looking forward to my order. I've been searching high and low over the past 3 years to make curtains for my kitchen. At last!!! I'll have them. And, I am a sometime quilter, so now I know where to go for those hard-to-find fabrics. Thanks so much!

Carol: I am so glad to have found your company and have had much enjoyment looking at your fabrics but I really like the personal feeling you convey with your replies. It is a great way to do business. This will be my first venture into a quilting project and I am more than pleased to have found you people. Best wishes,

Hi Carol, Just wanted to send you a note to let you know that the fabric I ordered arrived today! Wow, are you fast (we only placed the order last Wednesday). I was helping out a friend who was having trouble locating the fabric she needed. Sooooo, I began my search on the Internet and your shop had exactly what she needed. She had already started her quilt using the black twig on white fabric and she needed more. Then, she decided she really wanted the reverse (white twigs on black fabric) too. She tried every fabric store in her local area and had no luck. Well, may I say you came to her rescue!!!!! She was so excited when she called me this afternoon (Saturday) to say that it had arrived. I think I have convinced her that it is safe, easy and FAST to order over the Internet! :-) Thanks for sending the order so quickly. I can't believe it got to Southern California so fast! Hope you are having a great weekend and I know I will be ordering more fabric from you soon! Happy Quilting,

Carol, I received my mile a minute quilt pattern and have begun several projects already! I am not an experienced quilter but I do sew quite well. In fact, I have my own interior design business specializing in fabric accessories such as window treatments, table runners, and toss pillows. Needless to say, I have many scraps of beautiful decorator quality cottons. I have started a set of two quilt "throws" for my two nieces for them to take to college this fall. I love your pattern, even though I am not exactly sure I am doing everything right. It all comes out so beautifully with my scrap fabrics you would think I was quliting all my life!
Thanks so much,

Carol: Wow, I received my fabric today! In my opinion, a major factor in a satisfying on-line purchase is not only being very happy with the product itself, but how quickly I receive my order. Thank you so much !

 Hi Carol - Just wanted to let you know I received my beautiful fabrics today - I never cease to be amazed at how gorgeous these batiks are - each one is so unique. Thank you, thank you for your impeccable taste - as in the lovely fabs you stock and your wonderful service. Hope all is going well for you - take care...

 Hi: Just had to drop a note ... before my keyboard shorts out from me drooling on it .... from viewing all of the lovely fabrics on your website. Haven't been a "batik" fan before ..... found it's because my LQS's don't carry the right stuff!! Once my pocketbooks recoups from this month's stashing, I definitely will return and do some shopping.

Hello Carol, The material is just beautiful. AS USUAL !!! Thank you for the extra yardage. What a special lady you are to have this nice gift for your customers. I know the Easter bunny will be very good to you as you are so good to others. Off to CA, will check in on the web site when I get back as I am sure you have some of the STUFF I just can not live with out. Thank you again.

Carol... Thank-you for your patience. The order from Feb has arrived today. Now I have all the fabric I can use for quite a while. The fat quarters for that order are marvelous. I have been meaning to try some mini quilt patterns and this selection will spur me onto try them. Wow a wonderful selection. More choices than I thought I would get. It's a nice spectrum of colours. Thanks again,

Dear Carol... Thank you for the confirmation of my order, Carol. I really enjoyed your virtual quilt shop and have it bookmarked as a place I want to come back to often. Love your selection of fabrics..... 2 of my 3 daughters are having babies this spring.... I was blessed with a new grandson in February (he was a few weeks early.... but what a sweet valentine he made!) My second dear daughter has been in the hospital for more than 6 weeks on total bedrest...trying to get to week 34 of a difficult pregnancy (her first) ..... we only have a week or so to go and then we will be hitting the comfort zone. The fabrics I ordered are to make Christmas quilts and "loveys" for our new babies! Seeing those darling prints just made me smile and started my creative juices flowing again after a long, long dry spell. Just wanted to drop you a line and let you know that you "Bunny Hopped" into my life when I really needed a pick-me-up! Sue McNamara Feel free to use my e-mail any way you like. I am flattered that you would like to use it. It is just an honest reflection of how much therapy I find in the things I love to do and the folks I find along the way. I'll send you a snapshot of my little ones with their loveys when I get them done. .... and never fear.... just like that bunny.....I'll be back!!!

Thank you for giving a cheat for the stupid bunny. You were my very last site to find the stupid bunny, (yup, last name starts with a "C") and i was exhausted from all the sites that would give it and had the bunny buried deep in their sites. Yours is by far one of my favorite sites, and I continue to send people to you, give directions how to get to your shop, and I will continue to shop at your site and in person (at least once a year trip up to VT). I have had so many people thank me for sending them, and they agree that you are super to do business with. Of course, I am partial to you as we share our love of batiks.............You're the best, Carol - thanks again....................

I just wanted to let you know that I received my fabric today and I was very pleased with it. It is just what I wanted! I can't believe how hard it is to find in Canada, or near me anyway black and white fabric. I need it to make a quilt for my daughter who doesn't want any other colours in it. Thanks a lot.

Hi! Just wanted to say thank you for the quick shipping and the FANTASTIC fabrics... again! ha! They are just beautiful! :o) It's been a pleasure, and I'm sure we'll be chatting again soon! Thank you!

Carol, Let me add my voice to those of your other "happy customers"! The fabric was great, the order arrived in two days (!!) all the way out to California. I've just added another order, bigger this time, including fabric for clothing (batiks make great summer wear and last forever!!), and the usual for quilts. My batik habit has forced me to learn machine piecing and quilting, since I usually do both by hand. No way with most batiks, but they are just too gorgeous to do without! Again, thanks for your great service. Diane Simmons

Dear Carol: I received my second order from Quilt-A-Way. Perfect color! I'm decorating a bathroom and needed a special color for the shower curtain to match the walls & accessories. It's just what I wanted! The color renditions of your fabrics on your internet site are beautiful - someone has done a very good job. The colors in the fabrics I've ordered are the same as displayed on your site. Often, I hang my fabric samples on my monitor and search for complementary fabrics because I know that the colors are true. Such fun! I'm thrilled that I found Quilt-a-way and I appreciate your fast service. My first order was placed on Sunday afternoon and I received my order in Wednesday's mail, just in time to wash, press, and take to my quilt class on Thursday. My second order - just as fast, even with your ice storm. Thanks so much for a great internet site. It's a pleasure doing business with you.

Hi Carol- Just wanted to let you know I received package on Monday - fabrics are so beautiful and I love the 2 Shirley Liby books and your pattern - in fact one of my mini guild friends was trying to get her sticky fingers on the pattern - have to watch that girl - lol. I can't wait to try the scrappy pattern as I seem to be accumulating a lot of scraps now. I've got some gorgeous fabs in my already impressive assortment of fab fabs from your emporium - I'm always telling guild ladies - try Quilt-a-way if you want the best selection of batiks around and the rest of the offerings are great as well. Again thank you for such fabulous service and terrific goods - take care. Sincerely,

Hi Carol, Thank you so much, the fabrics are all lovely, the FQ's are just what I would have picked had I been going out and buying them myself, not that I'd normally buy that many at a time, but that was such a great deal, I couldn't resist. We just don't have the fabric range here locally, I have trying to get the angler here in NZ, but no one seems to have it.....even with the low Kiwi dollar and increased US postage rates, it is still a better option to buy from the States.
Cheers Kris ~:-)

 I received both my orders, and I am loving everything!!!!! The 25 surprise fat quarters are GREAT!!!! I just love them! Thank you for the very prompt response. I just may have to arrange a trip to Vermont this spring to visit your store. By the way, a few friends of mine are getting together to work on the scrap quilt you described in American Quilter Magazine magazine.."Mile-a-Minute Quilts". It sounds like fun, and we are going to do a swap of scraps. There will be 5 or 6 of us. I didn't associate you & the article until I went over the instructions, and came to the last paragraph where your store name "Quilt-a-way" was mentioned. suddenly a light went off.... I will let you know how we do. (By the way, one of the girls I am quilting with is Barbara Berdy, another new customer)

Carol, I received my order today and I wanted to thank you for the selection of FQ's you chose!! They are scrumptious and I love them!! Always a pleased customer, Hayly hawig@apex.net

Hi, Carol..... Just received my order and I'm delighted with my choices. They are GORGEOUS; I just love working with batiks. Your site helped enormously, with its large, printable samples, allowing me to make a paper sample with ease. Also, colors are the truest of any I've purchased previously. Thanks for the prompt service.........happy quilting!

It was a pleasure to do business with you and also to let you know how much I enjoy the Website.

I want to thank you for your article in the recent AQS mag. It saved my sanity (altho' some would say I was crazy to sew these blocks) and helped me "work thru" a rough patch, including a death in the family, a broken ankle, a hospital stay for bronchitis, the flu and a sinus infection - just in the last 2 months. Thanks again.

Hi Carol! I got home yesterday from my two week vacation to Wisconsin to see my family for Christmas and got my yummy package! Thank you SO much! I'm having fun pouring over it and deciding what to do with the lovely colors. I've been recommending your site to everyone I know! Take care and have a lovely and prosperous New Year! Hugs!

 Hello, Carol! Much to my surprise I got my fabrics from you last Thursday! This weekend I have been washing and preparing them and I am now ready to start my Halloween-quilt - can barely wait till the working day is over! Thank you again for your quick response - and the fabrics are beautiful! My previous attempts to order fabrics on the internet have not been as successful - I have been waiting weeks for just a few fat-quarters! Now I know where to order...
Best regards RITA ALNES

 Carol, Many thanks for having 'just what I wanted' when I click on your website. Every visit brings me something new and exciting from Quilt-A-Way. I love your website. The ease of ordering, your new nifty shopping cart, and the scans of fabric are always accurate. Your prices are great and selection is outstanding! Thanks for being there! Smile.
Annie Ste. Marie stmarie2@onramp.net

 Hello Carol, I visited your web sight last Sunday night and placed an order. I really liked the site, the fabrics were easy to see and were grouped nicely. I received my order Wednesday afternoon and was delighted with the fabrics and thanks for the little extra blue. I have embarked on a project of making totes to sell at craft fairs this fall hence the selection of odd fabrics. I have a couple quilt meetings next week and will be sure to mention your site to "the girls".
