Alex and Ricky, I have to join the "Amen" crowd, through your hard work, attention to detail, your combined quilting experience you have provided us with a fantastic world wide community, quality shows with the best teachers affording us the opportunity to grow as quilters. I have been a Star member since the beginning and have absolutely no regrets except that I still don't have enough time for quilting. Thank you and I plan to be a member for a long time.

Alex, I found show #307 Paula Nadelstern where Ricky demonstrates his mitered border technique.

In the same series, #310 with Luxin Newman Ricky demonstrates his binding technique with the special ruler. I ordered the ruler & it really works well!

Hope one of these 2 shows are what the folks were looking for.

Being new the site I must say I wish I had came sooner. I love it and I'm learning so much. I loved Alex's show on HGTV and must have found it just as it ended. I only saw a few episodes but learned so much. Alex came to Carmel and it was so much fun to meet her. As a new quilter she recommended I join. I didn't right away but kept it in my mind. A few months later I joined. I am learning so much and even with my limited time on here I've "meet" great people. Thanks so much for all the hard work!!

I would like to add to the positive vibes too. No matter what the time of day, what time zone , what country we live in TQS has brought us all closer together.

It is world wide learning community. Thank you TQS team from all of us.

I'm in the "Amen" corner too!!!
This endevour has been WAY more than I have ever expected!! I've been on board since the begining too!
It doesn't matter where in the world or what time of day, I have real friends that care about me and what I'm up too!
It's not about the money at all...I will continue to support all the sponsors that I can...whether it be by word of mouth praise or by buying the products...I'm there for TQS!!
This is more than web guild...this is a family reunion that keep getting more and more family members daily I can't wait to meet my new brothers and sisters!!!
Love to you all!

I have recommended this site to many of my quilter friends, telling them that you get good value for your dollar.

Most online quilting videos (and I have seen many!) display on our computers at very poor quality. Not so the videos produced by TQS. You and Alex have obviously invested in top-of-the-line, state-of-the-art technology -- and it shows! Furthermore, that investment makes a significant and concrete difference to your viewers / members -- clearer videos, useful close-ups, etc.

Not only are you and Alex warm and inviting personalities with incredible knowledge of both quilting and the quilting world, but you obviously put in long hours to create the many opportunities for TQS members to participate in that world.

We appreciate you and your investments of $$$ and time to make TQS the best!

Rock on!

I will continue to support TQS in any way I can.

Since joining the TQS site (and Paying!) on January 1, 2007, I have been constantly amazed by the wide range of features and information that is available. For about the cost of 2 quilting magazines that don't have anything new in them, I can enjoy innovative quilt programs loaded with techniques and inspiration, participate in the BOM, view the largest quilt show imaginable, get help with any problem-quilting related or not- and enjoy friendship with quilters from around the world. ARJJ is doing so many things right, and I just hope they can continue even in this most challenging economy. Marge

Who would have thought that one could find such loving friends on a quilt internet site? Not me! I have found true friends that I know I could count on if needed. That is priceless. I have learned more things than I can list and I have laughed with enough gusto that my DH had to come see what was going on. Keep up the great work and I will continue to support you as long as I can.

From the initial vision Ricky, to what TQS has actually become, there is a world of wonderful things that have happened. Little did I know that, on that morning three years ago when I joined, I would be given so much more than I ever dreamed from this site. I celebrate TQS every single day, whether it be in learning something new, shedding tears for someone's loss, or celebrating over someone's joy.......my life is always touched in some way.

"TQS has changed my life"........and those words don't apply to most of my everyday experiences. I wish only the greatest opportunities and blessings for all of you at ARJJ. Thank you SO much for everything!

Those of us who are self-employed are aware of the long hours and sacrifices it takes to start a new business. The videos alone are worth the price of the membership. Thanks for all that you do.

Right from the start I thought TQS offered me quite a"bang for my buck" and I hope it will continue to expand my horizons for many years to come. Thank you!

Thanks Ricky, for all you do, and to Alex for all she has done as well, The TQS website has reached out to me personnally as well, and I know and appreciate all the unbelievable time and money that has gone into each program. Sometimes it isn't the pay but the achievement and how it makes each one of us feel. Your team is the best and deserves all the praise that each one of them deserves, the list is long, but each cannot stand without the other. So my hat goes off to each and everyone. Thank you very Much.

Thanks Ricky and Alex for all your work with TQS! As a small business owner, I know it takes LOTS of nitty gritty work on the business end of anything to provide the goods and services we enjoy. I surely appreciate all your work along with the vision and support from Bernina and TQS sponsors. TQS members have also brought creativity and encouragement since day one.

This site is truly unique and I often tell friends about it. At renewal time, I also take advantage of the free 6-month membership to pass on to friends so they will become future TQS members themselves.

Thanks again!
