Hope you are all surviving!
I hope your holidays are moving along at an enjoyable pace. It's definitely different this year! Missing our friends and families (along with "what are you watching on tv?) seems to be the common theme for almost everyone, but in the words of my mom, "This too shall pass.". (Secretly, I hated when she was right, but she always was.) I am so happy to have so many of you stitching whether you have decided to bring back a craft from long ago or if you just have more time to get more done! We are starting to get in some of the canvases Patty and I ordered during the virtual market. Lots of new arrivals means lots of fun projects for the winter and 2021.

On an unfortunate note, I need to address our finishing services. We use three finishers regularly in order to accommodate all of your fabulous stitched work. This year, because so many of you are at home and stitching to save your sanity, our finishers are overwhelmed and not all of the pieces will make it back in time for Christmas delivery. I have spoken with many of you either personally or via email and I cannot apologize enough. You all gave us your items in good faith, but because of the current pandemic situation we will not have everything back in time. Please be assured as soon as we receive a box from any of our finishers, we will be in touch if your items are included. As the virus will most likely continue in to 2021, I am sure we will have a better idea of how to handle the work load going forward. This will most likely mean earlier cut-off dates. Again, please accept my sincerest apologies, it's just out of my control.
