Temporary closure...

So I meant to post something the other day in relation to the current state of the website, but of course I forgot because I was busy sewing.

Last fall, after taking a few too many corset orders in a sale that was intended to have only 4 corsets available, I suffered several bouts of illness and severe migraines, which were mostly related to the mold growing in the house we had been renting for 5.5 years. I was unable to work while sick, and a big part of the remedy came with us relocating.

I haven't been getting daily migraines since we moved (I think I've had two migraines total since the end of January), I've been physically a lot healthier, and my productivity has increased greatly. I am actually getting work done. A lot of it. But I still have 9 corsets, 4 skirts and one dress in queue as well as another wedding dress.

In theory I should be caught up by summer, preferably sooner, since we plan to move again before the end of July.

But until then new orders are not being taken so I can concentrate on the past-due ones as well as to update the website. As it currently is, any orders sent through the website go to a defunct email address. And we can't have that, can we? And I want to do some rearranging of things, updating of other things, and getting rid of yet other things. So until further notice, no orders are being accepted.

Thank you for being patient with me. When the website goes live again I'll be at a point where my turnaround time will be only a few weeks instead of way too many months.
