Well, this isn’t good news.
My wrist injury that I thought would improve has worsened instead. X-rays this morning confirmed I haven’t fractured or dislocated anything, but it’s suspected that I have a tendon injury through my wrist (which does not show on an x-ray).
Unfortunately, I have extremely limited range of motion or pain-free movement through my wrist. Along with a lot of swelling and decreased strength, sewing has turned into a no-go at the moment. I have a brace, my ice packs, and a prescription anti-inflammatory medication on board…but, unfortunately, the best treatment is rest.
What this means:
- I have temporarily closed my online shop to new orders.
- Many of my open orders have already shipped, and others are in process. Others haven’t been started yet. My standard processing time is 1-3 weeks so I am very hopeful that with a bit of strict rest, this timeline will be maintained.
- If I anticipate that I will NOT be able to complete your order during this time frame, I will reach out to you with next steps.
I will still be at the Community Pop-Up Sept 13 with my existing inventory, so if you need new gear that’s your new best way to get it!
One of the worst parts of being an independently operated (truly, one person doing all the sewing) business is that even a relatively minor injury can lurch everything to a grinding stop. I’ll do my best to be back in action soon, and will keep everyone updated in the meantime♥️
