The Tapestry Craft website is now live! It launched about an hour late (which is pretty much par for the course for any deadline around here). The first order was placed by the Snook, who was just testing for me. We’re still waiting for the first official sale. Please let me know if you find any bugs or anything. I’m still adding products but thank God the pressure is finally over.
Update: We’ve had five sales, and we’re averaging nearly a hundred dollars a sale! I’m ecstatic. All the hard work is paying off. The best part was when the Snook told me how great he thought it was. I thought he was just being nice at first, but he insisted that he really thinks it’s a great website. I can’t tell you how awesome it is to have your work appreciated by the person whose opinion you value the most.

I’m slightly bummed now, as I had a nasty e-mail from some lady bitching about how the wools didn’t have any information about tension or needle size, and I’m like, HEY COW, I’ve been uploading that crap all night! Don’t write the whole site off in the first 10 minutes because it wasn’t complete.
GRRR.
But we’ve had six big sales and I still feel good. The site’s going to take months to finish and I refuse to feel pressured by bitchy cows anyway.

Look, there is going to be one in every crowd. Don’t blame yourself for some woman who hasn’t gotten laid in like 6 years. If she wants tension and needle size she can go to the manufacturer’s web site like everyone else. so there!

We’ve both registered. Neither of us wants anything from the sale, but will look forward to the newsletters! Well done, Kris.

I registered! I need more yarn like I need a hole in the head, but I’ll keep looking, just in case.
