 
It's here! Our newest pattern has arrived. Update Your Day takes a classic shirt and moves it fashion-forward in a big way. Look at all the details: a drawstring to gently cinch in the waist, a rounded front hem, a squared-off back hem, a button-over finish on the sleeve hem, and that over-the-shoulder overlay with a deep pleat in the back. Of course, it has our special easy-to-construct collar, and you can use 2 of those pretty pockets with the rounded corners.
The vest is high-hip length, has the same collar, pocket(s) and back pleat, and can function on its own in summer or over a shirt or tee in winter. You can even add the sleeves to the vest to create a top or light jacket.
To celebrate the arrival of Update Your Day, we're also displaying lots of fabrics for each view. And nearly all of these fabrics are on sale until 8 p.m. Eastern on Sunday, November 14.

All the helpful information about making winter jackets from our wool/rayon knit is still there to see on the Home Page. Yes, there are pretty pictures, but there's also a book to download with all the techniques you need to know and the best double-sided sticky tape to make the process easy. We'll keep the 6 jacket patterns on sale for you till 8 p.m. Eastern on Sunday, November 14.

FACEBOOK FORUM
So many of you have joined us for fun and learning on the Facebook Forum. However, many of you who have said you want to join have not answered the 3 sewing-related questions. We'd love to have each of you be able to get in, but that can't happen if you haven't answered the questions. Please be sure to answer, because we'd like to know each of you.
SAMPLES
Please confine your sample requests to 3 per order. That allows us to give you the same prompt service you are used to. Also, remember that if you ask for a sample of a fabric that's on sale, the sale may be over before the sample gets to you through the mail.
A REMINDER
If you are searching for a specific fabric on the website and you know the number of it, be sure to put a 5-digit number in the search box. Examples: 00532 or 01379. You don't need to include the letters (FF) with the numbers.
SHIPPING
We want to assure you that we fill all your orders and ship them quickly. It seems that there are some delays with mail service at this time, both within the country and to other countries, so it may take a bit longer than usual for your orders to reach you. However, we are doing our part to send them promptly.
 By the way, we've heard that a few of you have thought that you had to have a PayPal account to order from us online. That's not the case. Even though you'll see "Check out with PayPal" on one of the order pages, just click on it to go to the next page. You'll see that you can choose whatever credit card you would like to use.
