Sorry for the lack of info recently folks.
I had a few prizes to do for events I was sponsoring, then I've had some stuff to sort on the business side of things which has allowed me to buy a second sewing machine for certain parts of the big bags and new indigo pouches.
There are violet pouches on my bench right now which need finishing...these are for the list already on here. They're first to finish.
I have a buckle order which should be with me very soon which will allow me to do a few of the bags which are on order, and also there should be buckles in there for doing ten of the new Indigo pouches, and ten belts.
The backpack is what I want to get onto more than anything, but I just never seem to get the chance. I really want to have something ready for the winter months and am trying to find the time.
I have my kids here for 4 weeks now, so I'm not going to be able to work full time, but I should have the violet pouches done within a week.
I'll probably be doing them a couple at a time and I'll PM the people on the list in order. I stand more chance of doing them that way rather than in one huge batch.
There are a couple of very nice people planning on investing some money in the company, I'm hoping this will allow me to maybe outsource production of the smaller items like the pouches to a local sewing firm. This should mean no waiting times. This will only happen though if the quality can be matched for a sensible price.
In other news there will also be some other items such as clothing and stickers on the way to hopefully keep things ticking over.
Thanks for being so patient folks...It's not easy trying to get something like this off the ground yourself when your materials are so damn expensive.
Hopefully It'll be worth the wait when everything is rolling smoothly.
