March, 2023
As many of you are aware, our Nashville Market was the beginning of this month. Unfortunately, due to circumstances relating
to my husbands illness, I was not able to attend. His doctor advised it was best to avoid crowds. Right now, he scheduled to have surgery
on St. Patrick's Day and I finally end his treatments. With that said, the designers were notified and some already shipped in their new wares -
Glendon Place and JBW Designs just to name a few. I did pre-order from many who will start shipping their wares this week, and will be receiving my automatic shipments from many designers as well. So - all Nashville releases will be arriving at our door throughout the month.
On the business front, we will be taking over supplying all of SamSarah Designs. Patty has been battling a very serious illness for some time, and has been unable to handle her day-to-day business. So we have made arrangements to handle all of her publications. I will be updating our website as her stock arrives. This has been a long time coming, but worth the wait. Also on the business front, DMC raised their floss price as well as all Threadworx flosses. Again, hand-dyed fabric companies - Lakeside Linens, Picture This Plus, Weeks Dye Works and
R & R Reproductions are still very slow in shipping in restocks. Again, when we say allow 9 months to a year for many, we are not kidding. With so many new hand-dye fabric companies popping up, Zweigart just cannot supply the amount of fabric needed by the larger companies, which in turn, cause the delays. If you need to start your project sooner rather than later, my suggestion is to pick a Zweigart Vintage colored fabric. They are machine marked, but have been what many designers are now giving as alternates. Please remember, we deal with companies across the US and overseas, and weather conditions can delay receiving our shipments. We cannot control Mother Nature - ask the people in Los Angeles, California who never experienced a snow storm. In my area all we get is rain, no snow so far this year. As many know, we ship as soon as we can, even splitting orders as needed. We had thought by now that the supply chain would get back on track, unfortunately it has not. Your patience is greatly appreciated, and as we say, order well in advance to avoid any disappointments.
