    Posted project update #1

    Thanks to our amazing supporters, we've met our goal—but don't stop now!

    We just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for the outpouring of support—we feel truly lucky to have met our initial fundraising goal in the first week we were on air! We're looking forward to sharing Sight Unseen with everyone when it goes live November 10.

    That said, there are still some pretty incredible rewards here, and we'd love to see all of them go to happy homes. If you know anyone in the market for a watch, a Strida, or a weekend getaway to the Derby City to stay at an amazing design hotel, send them to us, we'll take good care of them. We may even add a few new rewards in the coming weeks, so stay tuned....

    Thanks again for making our project a success!

    --Jill and Monica
