A mountain of custom orders.

Here’s a quick update on the life and times of YELLOW BIRD THREAD WORKS. Spring is here and summer feels right around the corner. Just like myself, you all seem to be pumped to go get some adventure time on your bikes. I have been shocked by how many of you all seem to want custom bags. It’s amazing and crazy stressful. YELLOW BIRD is not my main job, so I don’t hit the sewing dungeon until after I get my son to bed. I have been sewing until at least midnight almost every night for the past few months and I feel like I’m just chipping away at this custom order list. It’s crazy. I’m not looking for sympathy or anything like that, I just want to be transparent about how I work and what’s real. I do my best to manage and communicate expectations with anyone who asks about custom work. I feel like it’s been mostly successful. At this time, I think I need to put a pause on taking custom orders in. At least until I can get my list a little shorter. If you have something on the list already, you are good and I’m working as fast as I can. And again, thank you so much to everyone who has supported and encouraged me.
