I sometimes put the size of the squares I'm looking for...like "5 inch quilting squares." Usually get dozens of hits.

don't forget to occasionally use the word "lot". Especially if you are looking for a quantity of goods, like "quilting fabric lot".

I do rabbit fat quarters, rabbit quilt fabric, bunny quilt squares.
You can change the words to fit your search. I collect rabbit fabric so I search for that.
