| Know before using | This is a member referral directory, not a Stitch Authority roster or approval. The observed result count can change and is not a practitioner census. ASDP states that it makes no representations, warranties, or guarantees and assumes no responsibility for members' products or services. Membership, a code of ethics, a profile, a patternmaking category, or stated referral availability does not establish identity, credentials, experience, current availability, capacity, insurance, price, accessibility, workmanship, file compatibility, schedule, or project fit. Confirm those points, references, scope, samples, terms, and remedies directly. | The company count is a changing platform claim. Search fields, profiles, certificates, locations, and account access do not independently verify the legal entity, factory ownership, capability, capacity, certificate validity or scope, compliance performance, delivery, or project fit. Confirm the site and subcontracting, credentials with issuers, samples, audits when appropriate, specifications, contracts, and commercial terms. | Coverage is quilting-specific and uneven by country; businesses can pay for enhanced features, and community or owner updates do not verify inventory, service quality, hours, or availability. |

| What the source establishes | ASDP's public directory searches members currently accepting referrals by location and professional specialty. At the July 26, 2026 check, its Patternmaking & Related Services filter returned 15 opted-in profiles with specialties, service-location text, profile or contact routes, and some remote-service notes. The page identifies the population as association members in good standing. | FOURSOURCE's current public network page presents an operator-reported global company count and country or territory search. It says logged-in users can narrow results by compliance certificates, product groups, fabric types, target groups, minimum order quantities, and other fields, with a free-trial and supplier sign-up route. | QuiltMap describes free public search and free basic listings, community submissions and claims, and country routes covering North America, Europe, Japan, South Korea, and Australia. |
