New to the Directory? You can sign up for as many
categories as apply to you and your business:
- quilt shops (for general
purpose shops selling a variety of products)
- quilt supplies and services
(for businesses providing quilting services or specializing in specific
products such as quilt patterns or garments)
- quilt teachers, appraisers,
and judges
- quilters
and quilts for sale
- quilt guilds.
If you're not sure which categories apply
to you, take a minute now before you start the registration process to
look at the search page for each directory to get the idea of
what is included in each (See: quilt shops,
quilting supplies and services, teachers, quilters
and quilts for sale, guilds). If you are signing up for
more than one category, it is very important that you check all of the relevant categories
when you first see them at the beginning of the sign up
procedure. This will cause the sign up forms
for all of the categories you are interested in to be displayed as
you proceed through the registration process. If this is your first
time signing up for the QuiltProfessionals Directory, sign up here. The basic listing is free.
Enhanced Directory Listing
You will have the opportunity to sign up for an enhanced directory
listing during the sign up process for the free listing. The
enhanced listing allows you to include a map, a lengthy
description, and up to four images with your directory listing.
The cost is $20 per year for a map or an image (up to four images
available), and $15 per year for the lengthy description. A
"More Information" button with your listing will bring
up these extra materials and allow your prospective customers easy
access to more information about your business. Please sign up,
then mail your check and any images to QuiltProfessionals, P.O.
Box 101, St. Paul AR 72760.
Need to change your registration?
If you have ever signed up for any of the QuiltProfessionals Directories in the past
(or even earlier today), please do not use the new registration form. Instead go
to the change registration form
and enter your name and password. You will be able
to modify your registration, including adding new categories, on that page.
If you don't remember your password, just type anything in the
password box, submit the form, and you'll automatically get
assistance in figuring out your password.

to help quilt shops and other quilt-related businesses get your
web sites up and selling on the Web. Some of our resources are
free to quilt businesses and others are paid services that we

Need an inexpensive,
effective way to sell your products?
Many quilt shops pay very high monthly fees to sell a
limited number of products on their web sites. Even if you are
already selling on your web site, take a few minutes to consider

Our shopping cart is easy for customers to
use, specially designed for quilt businesses, and user-friendly
for you.
Email Newsletter
Our email
newsletter allows you to easily collect email addresses on
your web site and then email your newsletter out right from a
private part of your web site. The same newsletter can be
automatically displayed as a web page on your site.
Automated Class Listing
Our class list allows your
quilt shop customers to view your class listings on your web
site, and to search for the classes they want either by
teacher's name, type of class, day of week, time of day, or month.
