Announcements and Shipping begins today

Shipping begins today for all of the clubs and will continue through tomorrow. SO many orders are packed and ready for shipping labels.

A big thank you to all of the new club members and blog followers. So nice to have you with us. Be sure you sign up for each of the Christmas in July give-aways. Winners will be announced next week.

The floss packs for the Tis the Season SAL will be ready on the 15th and invoices will go out at that time. 9 skeins, 20 yards each, is $22 plus postage. I hope to have a picture later this week to show you the floss. I am having trouble uploading pictures to my computer.

I hope to start showing pictures of basic linen colors I have. I know a lot of you have seen the basic mottled cream, tan, sage, slate, etc.
When I get those done I will post on the side bar for stock colors. 28, 32, 36, 40 and 46ct linen. I also have 28ct evenweave.

Need floss for a special get together? I am dyeing floss for several people next week for special gatherings and promotions. My floss is $2.45 for my 20 yard skeins. I need 50 skeins per special color when ordering. If you just need a selection of floss then there are no minimum requirements. I am happy to work with you on your projects.

Have a great week. I will be up to my elbows in the dye pot! LOL

New Floss Collections coming soon!

Lots of new floss collections coming soon! July will be filled with dyeing LOTS of floss and great new collections.

Some of my best sellers have been the Halloween/Sleepy Hollow and the Victorian (Burgundy, reds, golds, greens) Christmas. I will be doing a new collection for each of those. All new colors....perfect for holiday stitching. I will also have a new patriotic collection of our favorite red, white and blues. Lets add another Autumn collection......and the list goes on.
These will be dyed and carded in July and August.  Throw in a few flower collections......Then I will do a few special collections and end with a Spring/Easter collection of pastels. As I said, LOTS of floss! And there will be a give-away for a box of each collection as it becomes available.

I have been asked to dye the floss for another SAL, Tis the Season with the beautiful Cardinal. I will be dyeing those colors next week even though the SAL doesn't start until Labor Day. I will have pre-orders when the floss is done. We are still working out the floss requirements.

Lets not forget that Christmas in July will soon be here! I love the give-aways and being able to share with so many of you. It will be a fun filled celebration....mixed in the the 4th celebration....and some very nice gifts to give away. Don't miss it!

July 1st will be the announcement for the Birthday Club winner, floss club winners, and the 1st day of Christmas. To say I am busy is an understatement but I love every minute of it.

So stay tuned.......

Thanks for stopping by!

Thank you

I had promised to start a new give-away this weekend and it will be delayed until next week. Thank you in advance for your patience.

I don't usually post personal things but my sister-in-law passed away suddenly earlier this week. Thank you for the kind emails I received. This is a difficult time for my family as this is the 4th sister in 4 years we have lost.

All of the orders that have just come in this week will all be mailed by Monday. Thank you again for your patience.

Sincerely,
Nancy

Shipping days this week

Once again it has been a very busy week with all of the club shipments. Almost half of them went out yesterday and we will be packing and shipping all day long today. The extras will go out tomorrow. It looks like I will need to add a third day for printing shipping labels and packing each month.

If you added inventory or more linen those orders will go out Friday.
The new orders for the Eliza Bell Cox linen and floss will go out Friday and Saturday. I had quite a few people sign up for that this week and I will need to ship my regular orders first and then I am dyeing more linen on Friday for Eliza. Once again, I thank all of you for your orders for the SAL. I still have floss available and can dye more linen at any time.

Stay tuned as I will have a new give-away this weekend. Now to decide what to give away.....that's the fun part!

Thanks for stopping by.
Nancy

We have winners today!

We have winners today....
We have the name drawn for the Birthday Club today. Happy Birthday Connie Murdock! Please send me an email Connie. Her birthday is on the 8th and we all want to wish her a very Happy Birthday. And to all of you who have a June birthday......I hope you all have a very special birthday celebration.

                
    Next we have winners today for the Special Edition floss. First we have Jamie Palmer who will receive 6 skeins. Next is Sheryl Hardesty. And we also have Beth. Congratulations!

And I am sending out your club invoices all day today and tomorrow so be sure to let me know tomorrow night if you have not received your invoice.

Thank you.

Nancy

Club invoices go out tomorrow

Just a reminder that the invoices go out tomorrow and Saturday for all of the clubs.

*******If you have not received your invoice by Saturday evening please send me an email. I always have trouble with some of the Paypal invoices and I don't know why. Neither does Paypal. It shows they have gone through on my end but several do not receive their invoices and when I resend them they usually receive them.

Shipping labels and packing will begin on the 3rd and run through the 6th and all of the packages should be mailed on the 6th this month.

I want to thank all of you who are in the clubs. I truly appreciate your business.

Have a nice weekend.

Nancy

Give-Away winner and announcements

Lots to talk about today. Give-aways, winners and other announcements.

You all know how much I love to share. I have give-aways all year long. HUGE give-aways with hundreds of dollars in merchandise and postage for gifts shipped world wide. Christmas in July.....the 12 Days of Christmas.....and a give-away almost every other month of the year.

And  I take your pre-orders and club subscriptions seriously. They are a lot of work. How much work? I put in 80+ hours a week. I think for being 65 with Lupus and 4 other diseases that is pretty good.

The Eliza Bell Cox SAL has been a huge success and new orders are coming in each day. BUT there are still 17 people who did not pay for their pre-orders (and you can still pay for them). I believe in tough love. I raised my kids that way.........and if you pre-order from me and don't pay for your order, I do have to say you can't order from me again. I simply had to make a list of people who cannot order from me. Plain and simple and I think that is only fair. I thought long and hard about this and will stand firm in my decision. If I dye your merchandise in good faith that you will pay for it, then you should honor your  part of the deal. Sounds reasonable to me.

The same goes for club subscriptions. When you sign up for a club I dye the floss for your order. Please pay your invoices when they are sent. Thank you.

Now for a winner today. Like I said.....I give away gifts all year long. The winner today gets to choose which flower collection they want: Antique Dried Flowers

Lambs Ear, Catnip, Heirloom Poppy, Faded Mums, Dried Hydrangea, Victorian Rose, Weigela Blossom, Verbascum Clementine, Yellow Rose, Coreopsis, Edwardian Fern and Dried Ferns. Perfect for an antique flower arrangement!
Wake Robin, Catesby's Trillium, Beardtongue, Downy Lobelia, Bluestar, Smooth Rockcress, Fern Frond, Gray's Lily, Flame Azalea, Indian Paintbrush, Columbine, and Southern Red Trillium.
Southern Appalachian Wildflowers.
And last of all is the Rocky Mountain Wildflower Collection.

 

The winner is Becky J. Congratulations! Please send me an email with your address and your selection. nbelgian@aol.com

I will have a new give=away next week after all of the club shipments are mailed.

 

Thank you and stay tuned for announcements for the clubs. Invoices will be going out on the 1st and 2nd. Then I start printing shipping labels and packing  on the 3rd and 4th and shipping on the 5th.

 

Thank you.

Nancy

Happy Memorial Day

                        Happy Memorial Day

Invoices for Eliza Bell Cox SAL go out today

I will be sending invoices all day for the Eliza Bell Cox SAL floss packs and linen.

If you have pre-ordered these items.....please follow through! There is a lot of work involved with putting all of these together.....and if you took the time to pre-order, and I took the time to dye the items for you, I would like you to follow through with your order.

I have had several pre-orders not paid for in the past and even though I hesitated about taking all of these pre-orders....I did take them and dyed the items for you. I thank you for honoring your order with me. I hope all goes smoothly and everyone pays for their orders by Wednesday unless you have made other arrangements with me.
 I will start printing shipping labels tomorrow and packing and then orders will be mailed on Thursday. A few late orders for custom fabrics will go out Friday.

I still have floss packs available. The floss packs for the 39 colors for the Eliza Bell Cox sampler are $31.95 plus postage. Send me an email if you would like a pack. nbelgian@aol.com.
These are 5 yard skeins with 2 colors having 10 yards.

Thank you.

Nancy

Eliza Bell Cox SAL floss and linen

The floss packs for the 39 colors for the Eliza Bell Cox sampler SAL will be ready on Monday and invoices will go out at that time. Packing and printing shipping labels will be on Tuesday and Wednesday and I hope these are all in the mail by Wednesday.

You can still order these as I dyed extras. I will probably carry them until September unless they all sell out before then.
It is $31.95 for the 39 colors. 5 yards of each color except for two colors that have 10 yards.
The 46ct linen is $20.75 plus postage. You can order just the floss without the linen. 20x25"

Thank you for a great response and a big thank you to Julie from Gulf Coast Stitches who put this all together and asked me to dye the floss and linen.

Have a nice weekend.

Nancy

Happy Mother's Day!

I would like to wish everyone a very Happy Mother's Day!

I am blessed to have my 95 year old Mother still with me. We talk every day and take a walk down memory lane.....which she loves to do.

I am also blessed with a wonderful son and my two grandsons that I have raised for the last 17 years. Such nice young men they have grown to be and we have a wonderful life together. I could not ask for anything more. Life is good!

 I hope each of you have a wonderful day.

Nancy

All the invoices have gone out today

All of the invoices for all of the clubs have now gone out. IF you did not receive yours please let me know. nbelgian@aol.com
A few do not go through the first time even though it shows that it did on my end.

I will start printing shipping labels and that will take two days. Friday and Saturday are packing days and we need two full days to do this. Unfortunately the 5th falls on Saturday and some of the packages will not go out until Monday and this can't be helped. I have already decided to take 2 days for invoices starting next month, two days for shipping labels and two days for packing. 1st-6th each month. And if the clubs continue to grow I will add a day to each process. These are 12 hour days already and we will add them as needed. Thank you for understanding.


The SAL for Eliza Bell Cox (on Facebook) begins in June. I will be carding that floss all next week for the 39 colors. If you would like to orders yours please let me know. It is $31.95 plus postage. These are 5 yard skeins and two colors have 10 yards. A great bargain.

Nancy

The remaining club invoices go out today

As I had stated, the club invoices are now taking two days to send out. The remaining invoices will go out today. My goodness it is busy around here!! And two more people signed up for the club yesterday. If I continue to get new members it will be necessary to divide this into three days....I will keep you posted  for next month.

Thank you for your patience in getting your invoice.

Congratulations! 

I draw a name each month from each club and send some of these great colors I dye each month.

Have a great day. I need to get back to sending invoices which will take two days!
              Nancy                                             

Club invoices start going out tomorrow

Club invoices will go out tomorrow the 1st and on the 2nd. If you have not received your invoice by Tuesday evening please contact me. It seems like there are always a few invoices that show they went through on my end but they did not.

Next I start printing the shipping labels.....for 540 orders this month! My goodness it is getting busy around here to say the least.

Then we will be packing all the orders for all of the floss and linen clubs and mail them out on the 4th and 5th. All orders should be mailed by the 5th if all goes as planned. Stacks of boxes of floss are ready to go.....bins of packs of 6 skeins are lined up.....bins of linen and aida......quite an assembly line we have going here.

There will be several sets of colors for each club now.....so you may not get the same colors as a friend receives.

Thank you for such a great response to all of the clubs. And a big welcome to the new members and followers. Be sure to sign up for each give-away that I post.

Have a great week.....watch for your invoice.

Thanks again.

The last of the club shipments going out

First I want to say thank you to all of my new followers....a big WELCOME!
And to all of the new club members....who are still signing up every day....thank you very much.

The April club orders got overwhelming with all of the add ons to each order. I had over 60 club shipments with extras added, from singles to boxed sets and full collections. Thank you very much.

It did slow down the linen shipments this week as 42 of those orders had extras added. The last of the linen shipments will go out today and tomorrow. Thank you for your patience!

Now.....I really need to keep club shipments separate from extra orders. No way around it. It will save hours and hours of paper work and expedite the shipments. So starting in May, if you would like extras of any kind they will need to be a separate shipment.

I would like to have all linen and floss orders shipped by the 5th of each month starting in May. Fingers crossed!!!

Thank you one and all. It is my pleasure to do the clubs for you and I appreciate each and every one of you.
                                         Nancy

Club shipping dates for April

I would like to thank all of you who have joined the floss and the fabric clubs. What a wonderful response I have had. Last month 65 new members to the floss clubs and almost 45  to the fabric club. And I must tell you....this will change the billing and shipping dates for May.

Lets stay in April first. Floss will be going out each day until the 5th. Linen will be processed and go out on the 9th. No way to get around it. I had hoped it would go out on the 5th but it will be the 9th as it has been before.

For May. The invoices took 16 hours to send out this month and I still have new members signing up every day. So invoices will go out on the 1st and the 2nd each month. It takes more than 18 hours to print shipping labels and pack orders so that will be divided into two days, the 3rd and the 4th. The orders will then go out on the 5th and the 6th. Overwhelming but I am pleased with all the new members signing up. I had 5 more sign up yesterday and they even said they would take previous months floss or fabric if I had any since I am sold out of the current month! There are now 9 members in Australia, 6 in Canada, 7 in the UK, and new ones in the Netherlands, Norway, Saudi, South Korea, etc. Thank you all very much!

And a big thank you to all of you on Flosstube talking about my floss and linen and showing your subscribers my products. I appreciate all of you very much for sharing.

I smile when my 95 year old Mother tells me to slow down......try to tell a work-a-holic to slow down......keep trying Mom......it ain't gonna happen any time soon!

Thanks for your patience. All of the orders are being processed as quickly as I can. It's time to hire more help!
                                                       Nancy

Her birthday is on the 4th and we all want to wish her a very Happy Birthday! Please send me an email Connie and give me your address. And to all of you who have a birthday in April we hope it is a special one!

We also have some winners for the Special Editions floss. This is floss that is different from all the other clubs. Special colors dyed each month. I know some of you already receive them. The box of 12 skeins is $29. I draw a name from each club. If you receive 6 skeins in your monthly shipment then I send you 6 skeins of the Special Editions. If you receive 12 skeins then I send 12 skeins.
Then I take your name off the list so other will have a chance for their name to be drawn in the following months. The linen/aida club will also have a winner.
The winners for today are Karen Gieselman, Deborah Bixby and Judith Blount. Congratulations! I will send your floss out with all the shipments over the next few days.

All the invoices for the clubs went out yesterday. We had a few glitches with several on Paypal as usual.....and I think we ironed them all out.
If you did not receive your invoice please let me know and I will resend it for you.
Thank you for subscribing and thank you Faithful Followers of my blog. I hope you enjoy all of this as much as I do. I truly love to share.

Have a wonderful Easter.

Club invoices going out tomorrow (Saturday)

All of the club invoices will go out tomorrow (Saturday). I will start at 6 AM and it will take 12 hours. If you do not receive your invoice by early evening please contact me. We always have several that don't go through the first time...I wish they did...and I thank you for your patience with Paypal.
Please pay your invoice as soon as you can. I know there is a holiday and everyone is very busy and I appreciate you taking the time to pay the invoice. I would like to get all the shipping labels printed on Sunday, again this takes more than 12 hours, and then I can mail packages on Monday and Tuesday. I need to have everything done by the 4th as my company will be arriving on the 5th. As I said in an earlier post, if you can't make the payment by the 4th you will have to wait until the 10th for me to mail your club shipment. Thank you for understanding.

April club shipments

I thought I would post this again for the club members. With Easter being on the 1st this year, when I usually send out the club invoices, I will be sending them out on the 31st. I appreciate your quick payments so I can get your club items shipped out to you. I will be working Easter to pack all of these orders (it takes over 12 hours just to print shipping labels now)  because as I previously mentioned, I have company arriving on the 5th and staying through the 8th. I will not be shipping any items during that time. If I do not receive your payment by the 4th, then your order will go out on the 10th.
I hope to have everyone's payment by the 1st so I can mail your orders on the 2nd. Floss and Linen club shipments will now go out on the same day. Since some of you had floss and linen I didn't want to make you wait until the linen was being shipped on the 9th.

Then in March I will resume the invoices on the 1st and shipping all club orders on the 5th.

THANK YOU for your help in making this go smoothly during the Easter holiday. I appreciate your help. And I hope all of you have a very Happy Easter.

Winner today for Friendship's Love chart pack

We have a winner today for the chart pack with floss to complete Friendship's Love. All the over dyed floss you need to complete this is included.

The lucky winner today is Joke. Congratulations! Please send me an email with your address.

I am super busy with all of the floss clubs each month. Lots of new followers and subscribers, thank you very much.

I am also dyeing all the floss for a stitch-a-long with Julie, the Gulf Coast Stitcher on Flosstube.
She is doing the Eliza Bell Cox Sampler. The floss packs will be available late May and the 46ct linen if you would like that too. Sales are direct through me but you can watch Julie's videos for updates. Pre-order now. nbelgian@aol.com
Floss pack for the 39 colors needed....yes 39.....will be $31.95 plus postage. The silks needed for this sampler were $280! That is why Julie contacted me to do the floss pack. You will need to purchase your own chart. I am just dyeing the DMC matches for the floss and the 46ct Bergen linen in a buttery mottled cream will be $20.75 plus postage. Of course you can just get the floss if you have your own linen. The floss requirements Julie has are for 46ct.

Stay tuned as I will post this again for Julie.

Important dates, mark your calendar!

Important dates, PLEASE mark your calendars!

With Easter being on the 1st when I usually send out invoices, they will go out on the 31st of this month.

NOTE!!!! I am having a group of stitching friends come stay with me April 5th through the 8th and will not be doing business at that time.

April shipping for clubs:
Invoices will go out March 31st. This takes 12 hours now.
Easter is April 1st
April 2nd I will start printing shipping labels and packing. This is a two day process now with all the new club members.

*******I NEED ALL PAYMENTS TO BE IN BY APRIL 3RD

I will be mailing all floss and linen clubs on the 3rd. If payments are not received by the 3rd then you will have to wait until the 10th for me to mail your orders. PLEASE mark your calendars so you can receive your orders early.

THANK YOU in advance for your help. It has been a lot of work to arrange all of the invoicing, packing and shipping but we have a good system now and I will be able to mail all of the floss and linen clubs together each month at the same time.

For May the invoicing will return to the 1st and all orders will be mailed by the 5th.

A big thank you and welcome to all the new followers and club members!

March Special Limited Editions

I meant to show you the Special Limited Editions for March. For those of you who are new to the clubs, these are different from all of the other clubs. I only sell boxes of 12 for $29 and they are very limited each month. Some great, special colors. These are the ones I give away to one member of each club each month.

I think this is my favorite so far this year. I have about 10 boxes if any of you would like one. They are $32 with postage in the states. nbelgian@aol.com

AND I will include a free surprise color!
