Our clearance sales continue. We did not realize how much stuff we have, so the excellent deals are going to be around just a little longer. Remember that these are all clearance items so once they are gone, that is it.
Not only is Beth working part time, she is watching grandchildren, too. As much as she loves sewing, it just wasn't bringing in the money that was needed, and she really does enjoy her new work. (Oh yeah, and the grandchildren are fun, too)
The purse kits clearance sale worked so well that there are almost none left. Thank you for your continued support. Beth is now working to clearance some fabric that has not been used in quilt kits or purse kits. What Beth has been working on also is some denim clothing that was originally scheduled to meet the cutting wheel, but is in good condition. She has decided to clearance all of those items without modification, so keep an eye out for the new listings.
In further cost cutting, the eBay store was removed recently. You can still see when new listings are added by setting up "dropped_stitch" as an eBay favorite seller.
We've enjoyed the past 6 years of making The Dropped Stitch such a large part of our lives. But now we're enjoying spending more time with our family and doing other things that we enjoy so much. We extend our thanks to all of you, some of whom have been around for the entire six years, for making the Dropped Stitch the success that it was. We hope you will continue to keep an eye out for new items that we list.
