Hello Kickstarter friends.

The shipping of rewards is complete, and my Kickstarter project has come to an end.  So, I am saying a final THANK YOU for all of your support.  With your help, I was able to produce such a large quantity of sleeves-- 5x more than I'd ever made before!   (many more than pictured) 

It wasn't the smoothest manufacturing process (ahem, delays...), but I worked with some wonderful people, and definitely learned a lot!

By the way...anyone who received an iPad sleeve and is wondering about that little loop pocket on the inside:

It's for a stylus or pen!  One of my clever backers made the suggestion to add the pocket, and there you have it.

Even though my work here is done, you can still contact me through Kickstarter by clicking Contact Me over there on the right, next to my photo.  Or keep in touch via:

Facebook 

Twitter

Wonder Threads Website  where you can also subscribe to my email list to keep up with anything new and noteworthy going on with Wonder Threads.  And remember that coupon code included on the thank you card enclosed with your reward!

Who knows...one day you might even see these sleeves in a store near you...

Thank you again for helping to make this all happen!

I am so grateful.

Hello Kickstarter friends.

I'm so very happy to announce that sleeve production is complete and the shipping of rewards is underway.  Yaaaay!  

Over the past several days, I've been in a Priority Mail frenzy! 

Many of you have already received your sleeves.  Most packages are en route, with the balance shipping over the next two days.  So be on the lookout for a package from Wonder Threads very soon!

Thanks so much for hanging in there with me all this time!  I am incredibly happy to FINALLY send you these goodies.

Enjoy!

Almost there...

Update #11 · Aug 10, 2012 · 5 comments

Well hello there.

Here's the latest scoop on production:  the Composition notebook sleeves are FINISHED!  And, stacks of FINISHED laptop sleeves are piling up at the factory!  I will have all sleeves in my hands, then heading out to you, by the end of next week.  Yes!  

So now is your last chance to let me know of any address changes, or reward changes you may have.  Have you moved?  Maybe you chose Black & White, but now you're really feeling that Bright Blue?  (Check out those colors below!)  Or maybe you've gotten a new laptop and would prefer a different size sleeve?  Just let me know!  Of course I've kept track of all of you who've already been in touch with your changes- no problemo.

The factory was covered in golden yellow sleeves today!  So exciting! 

I'll let you know when your sleeves have shipped...

Happy Weekend!

Sewing in full swing!

Update #10 · Aug 3, 2012 · 1 comment

Hello Kickstarter friends.

We are in the final phase of production-- SEWING!  I've been spending a lot of time in the factory with the sewing team, which comprises a group of very sweet, hard working women.  The stacks of finished sleeves are growing steadily.  Very exciting!

AND, my iPad sleeve was included in iPad Magazine's Top 10 Kickstarter Projects!  Sweet!

We're on the home stretch.  I'll be in touch when I make it to the finish line...

Remember, you can also keep up with Wonder Threads on Facebook.

Thanks so much for hanging in there with me!

Printing Accomplished.

Update #9 · Jul 16, 2012 · 2 comments

Hi there!

Here's the latest:

The printing portion of the production process is complete!  The Interoffice Envelope Laptop Sleeves were printed on Friday, which means all sleeves have been printed.  Yes!   

Next stop:  Sewing.  All of the sleeves will be in the hands of the sewing contractor this week.  I'll be spending some time there as well, so I'll report back when sewing is under way.  Until then, have a little look-see at some of the printing process.  You can also keep up with the progress via my Facebook page . 

Right now, I'm making some samples to give the contractor.

I'm really looking forward to this next [big] step of production!  I'll be in touch soon...

Thanks for all your support!

Diana
