| A few MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENTS before Go.fetch reopens I thought I'd start a new posting to take advantage of some major announcement as well as show a couple of pictures. Hubby is truly working hard to get the site reopened but he claims I have just way too many changes for him to work on (sooooo very true ) . . . I am pressuring him to finish up tonight but please be kind and don't get too upset if he can't. . . .my guess is if he won't do it tonight, it will be wednesday. So please, please, please bear with us and we do appreciate everyone's patience. In the meantime, I thought it best to make some important announcement so everyone knows what's coming down. . . . I am making a slight adjustment on my sizing chart to better serve everyone. In the last few months, I have had to make almost all custom dresses that it takes twice as long for me to complete a dress. By expanding the chart size I am hoping that custom orders will greatly reduce. So please go straight to the "how to" section and review the chart before you place an order to get the closest fit for your little angels. the sizing chart for all other gofetch apparel remains the same, just the ones I make (vest and harnesses). The added embroidery feature has also slowed down the process as it takes time to prepare everything as well as time even just to change threads and rethread them (oh but sooo fun to watch an artwork get completed). I am still working on dresses from the previous reopening and although I have covered about a third, there is still plenty of work that needs to be done . . .on top of that, I am very busy attending to all my retailer's holiday needs as well to get them prepared . . . . we are always getting new YT members who are wanting to try a gofetch collection, so I need to reiterate that this is not my full time job so I hope you all will be patient. Those that have ordered from me in the past already know how long it takes for me to complete an order and oftentimes I need to send them in installment because of the size of their orders so they are so wonderful for being sooo very patient. Due to the holidays rush, I will need your patience even more as I get through each one. PLEAE, by all means feel free to bug me . . . as it is possible that I might have misplaced, overlook or lost your order. Thirdly, from here on, with the exception of those that have their orders in already, I will prioritized custom vests/harnesses that are meant for holiday wear (thanksgiving, birthdays and christmas). and will try to mail them as early as possible . . . I will tackle regular vest/dress harnesses orders once all the holiday dresses are complete. Lastly and I think most important announcement of all, with the expected orders just based on members PM'ing me, I will reopen the vest/dress harnesses for only a few days and will be shutting down just those sections this Sunday at 9:00PM PST . . . .I know, I know this is definitely bad business but I'd be a total wreck and be super stressed not so much of the workload but the dissapointement if I cannot get the holiday dresses to you. . . . .as much as I would welcome making more, my gofetch time is still very, very limited. So even with the few days I already know I will be so overwhelmed . Hopefully, next year I can find a better solution to this ongoing problem. So please take note and make sure you get your orders IN TIME. The rest of the site will continue to open and operate through the end of the year (get ready for great sales for your GE buddy). Thank you all for your continued support and I look forward to making all these special dresses for your special babies. Here's a couple of FUN embroidered dresses I just made . . . The halloween dress has glow in the dark threads (its the light purple on the "trick or treat") so they will be luminous as they walk from door to door begging for candies . |

| Just in case you missed this on the other thread, here's the latest holiday fabric added for those who are addicted to this adorable little character. The last picture is what the finished skirt are will look like. Although not shown, I will use a white with silver dusting on the bodice for those wanting the dress with an embroidery design (will be showing off that sample soon) . . but if you opt for no embroidery, it will have the first picture to be the bodice as well. I don't have a finished outfit to show off so you will just have to either use your imagination or trust me that it will come out beautifully . I do not have much to go around as I only have very limited yardage and I already have a few confirmed orders. |

| Des, I almost feel bad for you with the amount of business you have and how hard I know you work!! We all love your products and are therefore willing to wait (at least I am) for however long it takes. Personally, you make the most gorgeous things for furbabies I've seen. So I don't care that I have to wait to get them. Heck, I would wait a year if I had to And really, for CUSTOM things, your items don't take too long, and we know you have the best customer service around Thanks for putting up with all of us!! Looks like you've got more great things coming (as always), and good luck with ALL that sewing You know I'd be your assistant (just as the previous poster said) if I lived by you....I'd love to learn!

And I'm SO GLAD I got my order in for that HK winter fabric the last time you had your site open, so I don't have to worry about you running out of material !!! I just don't know what I'd do then!!!!!!!!! Last edited by Sukoshi's Mom; 10-16-2007 at 10:23 AM. |
