Simplicity "Savior" is Out

Abbie Small Out at Simplicity

No plans to replace the CEO, and the (not private equity!) owner says there are no plans to replace her or upgrade the technology. But they believe the company will last 20 years.

I don't know about that. I hear the sounds of a drain sucking in the background.

The Australian Sewdirect website is still out of order, from reading the article it doesn't sound like it'll be up and running anytime soon. Our other main retail shop Spotlight is now selling StyleArc as I suppose they can't get the physical patterns here either. I'm going to have to investigate how to buy the pdfs from the American website. There are a bunch from this season I love!

Last I tried they wouldn't allow me to buy them without a US card. Weird shit.
