I'm Back!

Man, has it really been over a month since I posted?  Huh, guess it has.  I am so SORRY I have neglected this blog lately.  But, I have a really good reason!

First of all, for those of you who do not know already, I am pregnant.  Yes, we are really excited.  This is our second.  We have a boy, and are expecting a girl.  They will be 5 years apart.  I am perfectly fine with this.  I am not due until January, so (hopefully) I won't go into labor until after Christmas.

Whew!  Now that that is out of the way! hahaha

I have also been busy coordinating our first ever quilt retreat in conjunction with the Annual Salem Days Quilt Show.  Both took place earlier this month, and both were really fun to be involved with.  Sadly, this will be my last year coordinating the quilt show, as I don't foresee being able to do it with a 7 month old baby next summer.  I took lots of pictures at the retreat, and a few at the quilt show, so watch out for those posts to be up on this page....eventually :-)


Also, in case you haven't been here for a while, or this is your first visit to the blog, please note that there are more pages across the top of the blog.  Be sure to check them all out!  There are new payment options, hours of operation, Christmas pre-booking is going on, and there is a brand, spanking new FAQ page!

If you have downloaded the old order form, please take a moment to grab the new one from the link in the sidebar.  (or you can just go here).

Hopefully I'll have lots of more fun stuff throughout the coming months to post here, so please keep visiting!  Thank you for stopping by.  And remember, if you have any questions, you can always contact me! :-)

CHRISTMAS CUTOFF

Okay, sorry it took me forever to post this!

As of today the CHRISTMAS CUTOFF is December 16th. That is this Wednesday.


What does this mean? That as long as you get your quilt to me (or to Gracie Lou's, they'll call me when you drop it off to let me know it's there) then I can have your quilt quilted by December 24th (or sooner, depending on the volume of quilts I have at the time).

As of TODAY, if you would like me to also BIND your quilt, there will be an additional $15 charge (in addition to the normal cost of binding). All other services are charged at normal price.

If you have any questions, feel free to email me at designsbylaurajo@gmail.com. If you would prefer to call, please email me your phone number and I will call you back (I prefer not to post my personal phone number here at the present time).

Thank you!

Christmas Guarantee and Winter Special Reminder

All quilts received by me by Friday, December 12, 2008 are guaranteed to be completed by December 23rd (barring some totally freak accident, or major repair on the Gammill, in which case you will be notified immediately). Quilts received after the 12th are not guaranteed to be completed by Christmas, but I sure will do my best to get them done for you!



Don't forget! Batting is on special $7.99/yard (reg. $10.99) and all-over quilting is on special $0.01/per sq in (reg. $0.015) until the end of the year! That includes quilts received on or before December 31st. So, if you bring it in on the 30th, and it isn't done until January 3rd, you still get the special because it was in queue before the special ended! Prices return to normal on January 1st.
