Re: Quacker Factory

I've always appreciated Angel. Thought she was the perfect choice to represent Quacker Factory after Jeanne Bice passed.

Sequins, rhinestones, and fancy embroidery have their place. I have a couple QF pieces I've had forever because I rarely wear them and the quality is amazing.

These days QF is too expensive, as are most of the clothing brands on QVC. I watch but don't buy.

I still wear a QF denim jacket that I bought (from Jeanne Bice) many years ago. Angel was a model in those days.

It's all embroidered with scenes of NYC.

Well, I for one, like the rhinestone embellishment. Most of them are tastefully done, in my humble opinion. (I tend to steer clear of the sequins these days because of the care involved.)

I can buy a plain old top anywhere and I do. But I love the sparkle and don't care what anyone else thinks. I get more compliments on my QF than on anything else.

Is Quacker Factory leaving QVC? All their clothing is either on sale or clearance? I sure hope not. Thanks!

@TexasProud59 Not quite everything is on sale. I suspect they want to clear out current stock to make room for fall & holiday items.

I've only got a few QF items but I like the line. It is distinctive.

Does anyone remember the 50 in 50 tour? I was in the audience at Cypress Gardens the day QVC was there and saw Jeanne presenting QF. She won a spot and the rest is history.

Speaking of 3/4 sleeves (all brands), I have often hemmed or jujjed them up so they are elbow length (or ballet length.....just below the elbow).

I watch the shows just to see Angel. I never got to see Jeanne.

When I first started here I bought a pair of jeans and really liked them. I still buy her pants once in a while if they don't have too many stones on them.

I used to look at my friends who taught elementary school and say QF is perfect for them!

As far as the shirts now. I love the colors, and I love the material. I often wish they could make the shirts like that without all of the embellishment. I do have one I bought in 2024, and it doesn't have too many on it.
