    You gotta have a break now and again. Hope you get caught up quick enough to enjoy a few weeks off.

        If or when to reopen??? I never got the chance to even order from you yet, so you better open up in 3-4 months!!!
        You have to many amazing items to just seal up in a box and hide away forever. I'm only kidding you.
        I hope all goes well for you Russ take care.

            Russ----I've always liked what you've had to offer---and what you've contributed to the
            community here-----good luck with whatever yer up to----and I hope one day to buy
            some stuff from ya-----I thought this thread would be a good opportunity to say:
            "I always have my eye on your great stuff" even tho' I've never put my $ where my
            mouth is!

                  Oh, this may be permanent? I understand totally. It's easy to burn out with this stuff. I know. After three years of spending every evening sewing, I just had to stop. Probably should have paced myself better. I keep thinking one day I'll get in the zone again, but that hasn't happened.

                  It would be a shame if you gave it up, but it's something that is totally understandable.

                        Hey Russ, enjoy your time off, but I do hope to see you reopen shop after those 3 months. You have some great stuff and I'd hate to see you give it all up

                          If the new job won't let you do it anymore, maybe you should sell off the business?
