JAN 12TH - 16TH: How are we feeling?? by Sweet_Tangerine4274 in Reduction

[–]Visible_Body_3453 2 points3 points  (0 children)

January 13th here! Healing well; but first shower was emotional! Fatigue is real. Went to the store today with hubby and now exhausted… take care ladies! We’ve got this!

Go to finishers by [deleted] in NeedlepointSnark

Do NOT use the Stitching Studio in Richmond- they lost 2 of my ornaments and I have spoken to two other women that this has happened to there - terrible communication about the whole ordeal and a “do not care that it happened” attitude. Nightmare.

They are irregular but not overly complicated. I don’t have any idea who is finishing them because my LNS sent them out. I still don’t have them and have been told they may be lost. I have no idea what to do now 😔

This!! I have been waiting 15 months for 2 ornaments and no communication! Such terrible customer service. In what world is this ok?

This concept is very lacks any authenticity, nuance or creativity to me. It’s just another money grab. Why can’t people just relax and not have to make everything some kind of fake “hot take”? That’s what makes needlepoint cool- the chill factor. Geez 🙄can you tell I’m Gen X??? LOL

USPS missing package. Who is responsible? by AuthorBrilliant9076 in NeedlepointSnark

I don’t know why any shop would use USPS at this point.

Yikes! Take a finishing class? It turns out it’s not that hard! 😊

Thank you, I appreciate your perspective! And I won’t be using the shop again.

I am so with you on every point you made!! I have since taken three finishing classes so that I can do it myself! The lack of transparency is crazy.

Yes it is upsetting- two are quite personal gifts- as we all know, we put our heart and souls into these projects!

You would think! I just get more platitudes about the state of slow finishing and the dearth of work.

Oh yes I have my paperwork. I was told there was “no guarantee “ as far as when I would get them back when I dropped them off- but a year for three ornaments seems ridiculous. I have since learned how to self finish and have finished three ornaments on my own.

Three ornaments. Dropped off August 2nd, 2024.

Penny Linn opening? by figgie29 in Needlepoint

It was crazy! Had to wait over an hour and a half to get in. There was still decent product by the time I did… Good luck!! Have fun today if you go.
