I have been adding a lot of things to the website since I started it, and I hope if you haven't, that you'll continue to stop by and check out the new offerings!
I would also like very much to have your input! Having a website "catalog" instead of a mail-order catalog is very new to me, and I'm having a little trouble advertising. I do post ads periodically on the CQ lists on Quiltropolis and Yahoo!.
I read those lists too, however, and know my priority is not always reading the ads!
We've been having a GREAT close-out sale! The prices are unbelievably low as I try to sell my remaining stock. The thread sale has been a terrific success, though there are still many great threads and ribbons left! If you're interested in looking at the lists of what's left, please contact me, and I'll email them to you!
Through October 31st we're having a super-special on beads! I've discounted them three times over from their original prices, and hope all of you will participate while the prices are still so low! (Check out the new pages on beads! I've added a Bead Sampler page, a Seed/Bugle Sampler page, and a "special" beads page!)
I just added a new Christmas Ornaments kit, which includes another free pattern. In addition I'm offering another free pattern when you order the threads to embroider a Great Blue Heron! I hope you'll check these out on my Patterns and Kits page.
BIG NEWS for next week! I'm going to have a Birthday Sale! Yes, my 50th birthday is on Friday, October 6th. I can't believe it! Any orders you place on my birthday will be discounted an additional 15% off their already extremely low close-out prices! I can't think of a better reason to celebrate with all of you and share presents!
I would welcome any input you'd like to share with others on the mailing list. Your questions, ideas, new "tricks" you've learned - really anything! I would also love to add your site to my links page which I'm in the process of setting up now.
I'm also hoping to send out a survey during the next month, and would love to receive as much input into it as possible!
I do need your input. Things in the CQ world have changed enormously since I put ESD on hold back in 2001, and I need to learn what everyone is currently doing, what you like, and don't like.
If at any time you wish to be taken off the list, all you have to do is let me know - I'm not interested in "spamming" anyone! I believe there is an "opt out" option at the bottom of the newsletter also - either way, I will take you off the list as soon as you wish!
