*Many of you know our finishing deadlines have been altered this spring/summer due to the increased number of projects brought in for finishing during COVID. There's just a lot more stitching going on. We understand your frustrations as some of you have rushed to meet new deadlines or forgo the hope of having something(s) ready for the holidays. We have been looking for and have found other ornament and pillow finishers who can still finish those items for the holidays. Please contact us if you'd like further details. Be advised their services
are more expensive.
