♥ FAQ ♥ Commission Status ♥ Project Blog ♥

Been a while since I updated~! Here's whats new/run down on the future etc. I have some big changes to announce as well as some projects to share! ♥♥

As you may or may not have noticed I fall behind on email, notes and comments often. Just when I think I catch up, the next morning I have a fresh new set awaiting my response. *_*;; It sometimes takes me a week just to reply to a simple questions of "do you accept commissions" this is due to the volume of inquirires, quotes, status updates, 'how did you makes' and general chit chat. More recently I feel as though I have been spending too much time repling to people. I am EXTREMELY flattered by my popularity but sometimes when I have a deadline crunch for commercial projects, I can't take the time to reply to everyone. So I have taken measure to help me out with this~!


I got a secretary~! ↑↑↑ ♥♥♥


All emails, notes, questions etc should be sent directly to her from now on. Anything she is unable to answer she will forward to me and I will happily reply. ♥ I just need help with the general bulk. (MOSTLY the quotes, and how did you do this and basic questions) ♥ I am seriously honored/happy that I am so loved and people are interested in my work. Seriously thankyou guys. ♥n//.//n♥


So on that note, for any future questions, emails etc. Please use the following email address.

usakochan.com [at] gmail.com

Anything not sent to her may be over looked or you may have to wait a bit to hear from me.
She will also be handling most of the mailings and webpage (which is in drastic need of an update) for me too. So yay, that should free up more time for sewing~~! ♥♥
She will also be creating and fixing my schedule for me. And new schedule will be posted... I would guess by Friday? I need to make sure the new schedule actually leaves room for commercial work though. I thought I would have enough time to squeeze a ton of projects in between but that never happened last time.



Secondly! I am thinking about ALSO getting an assistant. They would just handle basic chores such as stuffing, flipping inside out, cutting and the satin stitching on hoodies (I will do all placement, shapes etc) this would really help me drastically.


I have increased my workload recently with accepting a 3rd commercial job (they only need me now and again) but when they need me, I get pretty swamped which is what happened this past week. After I finished up some patterns packets for one of my jobs which I posted about, I was hit with an even larger project that I couldn't say no to. I just finished that up 1 day ago so I am able to take a breather and jump back to commissions while I wait to hear back if I have edits or not~



Mmkay~! That should be it for now~! Secretary-chan starts tomorrow so yay~! I need to give her the run down and explain a bunch of stuff to her but you guys be nice to her, okay? I will try to answer some more questions and emails tonight so I dont overwelm her too much tommorrow. hahaha
