- Have you heard about Quilt Deal? I really don't have a lot of information about it - you can check it out yourself here at this link. Here is information straight from the site:
Quilt Deal will be "the very first online website designed for quilters around the world to BUY & SELL in an international flea market.
There is someone out there in our quilting community who is just waiting for what you have to sell! Maybe you have a sewing machine you are no longer using and you want to sell it and make some extra cash. Or maybe you can't afford to buy a new sewing machine, and you are looking for a good second hand one to purchase, well QuiltDeal.com is the place to go to make the deal! For $5.00 per item, you can post items you have to sell! Post your item with details and pictures for up to 2 months!The categories for you to buy and sell things include fabric, quilts, sewing machines, thread, buttons, books, magazines, tours, notions, embroidery items, patterns, kits, jewelry, services for quilters and much more! Create your own "store" where quilters can visit and see everything you have to offer. If you are a quilt shop owner or you manufacture products for quilters, this website will be extraordinary international exposure for your product and enhance your profit considerably!"
The piece that I wanted to share about Quilt Deal is that from May 9th until May 15th, you can list up to 10 items free of charge. This would be a great way to test out the site. It seems to me that the site will be like a quilter's Ebay.
