    Hi,
    Just a short word to say "I LOVE this link" !!! I am an ex-pat in China for a few years and there are no shops or stores that sell quilting stuff, so I rely on wonderful and knowledgable people like you to keep me in touch with the quilting world.. I did find wonderful markets with cheap cheap cheap fabrics... so I have been going a bit mad with the stash collection.. Well talk to you all soon..

    Sew glad to meet you. I can only imagine the material you must be finding there. I hope you can find a way to quilt while you are there. I know some of the most beautiful (and oldest) quilts in the world are from China. Welcome from Centennial, Colorado.

    Hello from Perth, Western Australia....I spent several years in Hong Kong and travelled to China a couple of times. Glad you are still quilting and great you are able to supply to the orphanage.
