An Exciting Transition


Can you read it? Our very first sign for our very first real place! Becca and I are beyond excited. We're in transition now so we're asking for a bit of patience as blog posts, convos and (hopefully not many) orders are lagging just a teeny, tiny bit.


It's not a retail outlet right now. Just an office for our fabric and shipping headquarters. Still organizing and working out kinks. Trying to make friends with the UPS man who will have to bring large boxes of fabrics up the stairs in this old Victorian house. (Do you think cookies would help?) The first box yesterday was small, only 3 bolts. He has no idea what's in store.

We have planned the design wall where we can put up all the gorgeous blocks coming in from the Sew Fresh Fabrics Scrap Bee. We're also finding bits and pieces of fabrics that aren't listed in the shop. Some are odd lengths or ends of bolts that got lost. We'll be putting these in the specials section of the shop as we find the time to sort through them. We'll let you know when these are ready. A big Thanks to our fabulous customers who helped bring us here! We're so excited!

  2. Congratulations, girls!
    Yes, I would bribe the UPS man with some treats now and again. Every time there's a huge shipment, maybe up it to brownies. Kinda like training puppies! :)
