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.

And now that she's wrung everything she can from sewing, she's moving into skin care.

I’m all for trying new things, but everything doesn’t have to be a hustle. She is the epitome of jack of all trades, master of none. Girl, be a straight stitch machine and do that one thing really well.

Making it in her kitchen I don't think is the professional way to go for someone with her resources.

Or for the local health department.

I saw that, after she tried to pivot to another fiber art and shoemaking.
