Tuesday This and That: October 14, 2025

 


I keep the above sign near my computer  😄

Welcome Tuesday's This and That.  I don't think we've had one for some time.

Ellis and Higgs is a German website that has some really nice (free) tutorials.  You can see them here.

I don't order much these days for sewing but I made an exception for Daisy and Grace templates.  I really enjoy working on the quilt-as-you-go pieces while we watch tv at night.  

So I decided to order more templates because I found some tutorials of other things I would like to make.  The only place I knew would have the templates was Missouri Star Quilt Company.  Daisy and Grace has them but the company is in the UK and therefore subject to tarriffs.  

What I didn't realize was that Missouri Star now uses Amazon for delivery.  I ordered in September.  Two days later the package was shipped out and arrived at a carrier station.

The problem?  When the package didn't arrive on time, I tracked the order.  It cited that the order would be late.

The package was "in transit" for 12 days until it arrived in New Jersey.   

I'm just letting you know that if you order from MSQC, you package could take way longer than you expected.


Have a safe and happy day!
