I’m back…..
After a lot of time and effort I’m back.
The Craftsy issue prompted me to start up my website again, but there were issues, lots of issues. I chose what I thought was a good plan, with a supposedly reputable company, with what I needed for my online shop, but sadly I was not happy with what it wasn’t able to do. Needless to say I had to close it within 2 weeks of opening, due to all the issues. That’s a whole other story, for another time.
A lot of help
Anyway, I have had the help of an amazing person I’m fortunate to know, we’re even related, my awesome cousin Gordon, who has helped me get my website up and running again. I don’t have words to Thank him enough for the time he has given me to help me get started again.
What’s in my store!
I’m keeping it simple and basic for now until I get used to it, and as I get better I may add bits here and there.
I wanted to add my patterns first, and as I can I will add my ready made bags, wallets and accessories to my store.
You can use Paypal and Stripe as payment options no matter where you live. I also have Bank Transfer as an option for my Australian customers.
I hope to add Afterpay too, but that is being worked on. I have it, just need to work out how to add it here.
As of January 1st the prices for my patterns increased.
I have held back charging what I should have for over 2 1/2 years, but the time came for me to bring my prices into line with other designers.
If you’ve ever bought my patterns, you already know they have a lot of detail, all the pattern pieces and more.
I’m gradually getting around to the revamping of my older patterns too, but like a fine wine, it takes time. When I do re-release a pattern I will let you all know.
Stock Clearance
I’ll also have some stock clearance, which are excess fabrics, haberdashery and bits and pieces which I need to clear out of my shipping container.
I’ll even add some paper patterns from brands such as Simplicity, Vogue, Butterick etc which are all new and unopened.
There are even loads of vintage and out of print patterns that I have that I need gone, too many to check if they have all their pieces or not. These are in various condition but if you’re OK with ‘pot luck’ then these will be for you.
Shipping
I have a $15 Flat Rate for shipping in Australia on physical items, but if you spend $150 or more shipping is FREE.
I’m not currently shipping physical items to other countries.
