Hardanger Filling Stitches advance copies

I’m back from NZ, safely at home, and I’m supposed to be back in the office, but I’m unwell. Not covid, thankfully, but also not surprising, given how exhausted I was from the trip!

I thought you would like to see what arrived while I was away: the advance copies of “Hardanger Filling Stitches”! To state things plainly, I DO NOT YET HAVE THE BULK SHIPMENT OF BOOKS, and as such, I am not yet posting pre-orders!

Advance copies are the six copies (that’s right, only six) that are sent in advance of the bulk shipment. They’re the last time I get to check the book before they are shipped. At this stage, you’re basically checking that they’ve printed the book on the right paper, and all the pages are there. You couldn’t change anything at this stage because the books are already printed.

So, the books are currently being shipped, and I don’t know yet when they will get to me. Some time in December, all going well on the docks at Sydney. Last week one of the major dock companies had a cyber attack which shut them down for a few days, and shipments started to bank up on the docks. Hopefully this will have no effect on my shipment.

As I am unwell, I’m not yet back in the office. I’m sorry, you’ll need to be patient with me. I’ll get to the orders and enquiries that came in while I was away as soon as I can. While there’s a mountain of work to be done, I need to rest and recover.
