Oh, and I noticed that my link to That Perfect Stitch in the prior post didn’t show up, so if you didn’t see what book I reviewed, here it is again:

I hope you have a wonderful day!

Episode 31 – A message to quilt shop owners

The Husband bought me an awesome gift for Christmas – a sewing table! But he had the hardest time buying one. Why? Quilt shop employees. D’oh.

My new quilting table!

He ended up buying it at Joann’s, which isn’t bad, but a local quilt shop lost the sale because they were rude to The Husband. Sigh. Quilt shop owners, take heart! It isn’t only quilters that come into your shop to spend money. The Husband will never shop at the lqs for me again and I will probably only do so in a pinch (or until my current gift certificates run out.) How sad for them…that could be literally thousands of dollars lost over the years. I am tentatively saving for a new machine and now I know where I definitely won’t be buying it. Tsk tsk. It wasn’t like he was just buying a handful of fat quarters. He was willing to spend hundreds of dollars…and got snubbed! Though being rude to a customer spending any amount of money is inexcusable.

Have a listen…I hope you had a wonderful 2010, and that 2011 is even better!!!
