March 31. Orders have not gone out from last week, but they will soon.
I apologise for the wait, and because so many of you have been my community of customer-friends for years, some of you since those early online Sashiko tutorials I wrote in the early 2000's, when I had just started this business, I want to share that last Saturday my oldest daughter Rachel passed away suddenly. This photo is of her with my mom.
I've come to think of all of you as not just customers, but friends I share creative interests with, as friends I write letters and share thoughts with, so I hope it is ok to share something this personal.
Also I just want to reassure everyone, especially new customers who have placed first time orders and not heard from me, your orders are safe and on their way very soon.
Warm regards,
Susan
Welcome to A Threaded Needle
There is an intangible but deeply felt quality contained in an object made by our own hands.
A Threaded Needle exists because I believe deeply in the importance of both making things by hand and of having made-by-hand things in our lives.
A Threaded Needle is an independent owned Canadian business (just me with occasional help)
I always like to have your ideas and comments, and absolutely I want to know if there are ever problems with my website, or products, or your orders. Please use e-mail to contact me, it simplifies my workload.
I'm looking forward to another season of being part of your creativity!
