    Default Kings Men Quilting? Gone?

    Hi, I just tried to access the KM website and the site is expired? I've ordered in the past. Are they out of business or is this just a temporary issue with the website?

    Kingsmen has been trying to sell and retire for a while. I received an email that they will still be open for a little while longer but you have to call to make an order. The reason is probably because they still have lots of merchandise but are also out of a lot they would normally carry. Talking to them via phone will determine if they have the things you need. Give Dave a call, he is very nice. I hate to see them leave but understand their wish to retire, they have been such a wonderful company and group of people to order from--I will miss being able to order from them.

    I discovered it a couple of weeks ago. Wondered why they kept only partially filling my thread orders. Called them and found out that they were going out of business. Had to scramble to find a good source for batting rolls and thread. Agree that it's a shame...they've been a great source for supplies for me in the past decade.

    Thanks for this answer - I have always ordered thread from them and will miss them (but I really do understand if they have happily retired). I wish them good fortune and happy retirement.
