Good morning to my SiS family.

I am making some big changes in the coming months. After much deliberation and struggling, I have decided to slow down with my quilting. So what does that mean for the website, exactly?

I will still publish blog posts and post content much the same as I always have, however the shop portion of my webpage will be closed down. I will not be offering any published patterns. Juggling a full time job, raising some rapidly growing children, and maintaining a business had grown to be too much for one person. Taking a step back from the self-publications is a way for me to maintain a healthy work/life balance.

I will continue to create new things and design patterns for AQ Magazine and different fabric designers – that is the aspect of quilting that I love. I will still post my free patterns and share my creations with you. I am still available for teaching and lectures. Only the e-commerce portion of Stacey in Stitches will disappear.

As I am not particularly tech savvy when it comes to programming and website design, there is going to be some trial and error and I figure out how to reel things in without completely crashing the website. So please, if you come for a visit and things are down, be patient. I will have the website up and running like it used to after some trial and error.

I want to thank everyone for their love and support these past 11 years and counting. I cannot believe how far we have come together! I am looking forward to continuing to create and share my work with your, and please keep sending me your pictures and makes, its something I truly enjoy!

For always and ever, happy stitching!
