I'm for sale

Holy Crap!!! ok, we're sold out. Thank you all so so much! I can't even say how thrilled I am! I'm overwhelmed actually and definitely taken by surprise. I hope anyone isn't too disappointed if they missed out. I will definitely have more printed up. Maybe I can set up a mailing list for those still interested. Let me talk with my tech staff.

Posted by: Adriana | Jun 22, 2006 10:08:58 AM

Hello. I ordered one and paid via paypal but then realized after the transaction that I pressed the order button and not the order international button. The smile was wiped right off my face....what do I do now. I'm sorry I was just so excited.

Posted by: Veronica | Jun 22, 2006 10:10:31 AM

yeah! I got one, too! I knew it would pay off to be a stay at home mom! I've been sitting here since 9:45 refreshing the shop!

Okay that sounds reeeally insane/obsessive. But, I don't care! heehee

Posted by: Heather M | Jun 22, 2006 10:11:02 AM

Hooray! I got one too!

Posted by: rosa | Jun 22, 2006 10:19:10 AM

Posted by: Catherine | Jun 22, 2006 10:19:26 AM

Yay! I'm stranded in the sticks with super slow dial-up today, *and* it disconnected me in the middle of my transaction, but I still managed to get one. I can't wait to get it.

Posted by: sheryl | Jun 22, 2006 10:26:04 AM

Woooohoooo! What a wonderful new-craft-room warming present to me!
Now we just need to hurry up and move so I can get sewing... the book is ADORABLE! Thank you :)

Posted by: Krista | Jun 22, 2006 10:26:44 AM

Yippee. Maybe the time difference worked for me for a change? Can't wait!

Posted by: Strikkelise | Jun 22, 2006 10:26:55 AM

I had to do some time conversions to figure out what time to hit the shop - but hurray! now I can look forward to the postman coming - at least I know one thing won't be a bill.

Posted by: caroline | Jun 22, 2006 10:31:15 AM

Just ordered...Yippeee!!!!!

Posted by: Lauren | Jun 22, 2006 10:31:19 AM

Posted by: oiyi | Jun 22, 2006 10:36:56 AM

thank you for everything! after you get done with this shipment you will need to take a nice long break. drink a nice big Gin and Tonic in the sun or something.

Posted by: christina | Jun 22, 2006 11:03:24 AM

thank you! Your site is such a source of inspiration for me! I love the wee bunnies and wee patterns; can't wait to try my hands at the rest of the gang... and great design Tim -- the booklet looks sharp!

Posted by: Holly | Jun 22, 2006 11:07:08 AM

I just placed my order! I can't wait to get my pattern booklet!!!!! THANK YOU!

Posted by: Anna | Jun 22, 2006 11:18:29 AM

Just bought one! Am too excited as I've only ever made one other stuffed. The booklet looks great from what I've seen. Um, now I have a question for you regarding Chicago. My best friend moved there from Colorado Springs back in October and has not liked it very well. I so want here to enjoy it, but I have no recommendations as for things for her to do, places to shop, etc. She's mostly into reading and some knitting. She's a SAHM and is having such a hard time meeting anyone. Do you have any thoughts on what she might be able to do to remedy this?
Thanks for any feedback you can give.

Posted by: Robyn | Jun 22, 2006 11:26:54 AM

Woot! I think I'm in, too. I hope you sell out as quickly as it appears you will...

Posted by: amandamonkey | Jun 22, 2006 11:27:35 AM

thank-you!

Posted by: shael | Jun 22, 2006 11:32:50 AM

Thanks so much for all the time, energy and creativity you and Tim have put into publishing the booklet. I can't wait to see it!

Posted by: Sara | Jun 22, 2006 11:40:00 AM

congrats hillary and tim!

can't wait to get mine in the mail!

Posted by: sunni | Jun 22, 2006 11:42:11 AM

Done and Done!

I look forward to getting my greedy little hands on it.

Posted by: Heels | Jun 22, 2006 11:47:34 AM

OMG! I just clicked over to check and there are already sold out! WOW! Congratulations Hillary!

Posted by: Blair | Jun 22, 2006 11:55:50 AM

Will there be a second printing?

Posted by: allison | Jun 22, 2006 11:59:55 AM

Yep. I missed the boat. So much for my reminder! Darn it.

Posted by: Kelli | Jun 22, 2006 12:06:09 PM

Ooh I really wanted one! I hope you can print some more... Great ideas on your site, lovely!

Posted by: caroline | Jun 22, 2006 12:09:36 PM

Crapola. I completely spaced that your pattern book was being offered up this morning. Somewhat ironically, I was taking my sewing machine in to be serviced at 10 a.m. this morning.

Please do let us know if you start a mailing list for thos interested in purchasing a book from a second printing. And you thought 250 booklets would be more than enough. Ha! Honey, your fan base is far larger than 250 people.

Posted by: Sarah | Jun 22, 2006 12:13:37 PM

crap crap crap crap crap. I wanted one soo bad!! I thought I was going to be right on the ball getting onto your site at 12 CST! Balls!!! I'm interested if you reprint!

Greetings,

Posted by: mariken | Jun 22, 2006 12:50:59 PM

can you offer a PDF version? I've literally been on a train for the past hour like 'oh damnit, those booklets are going to sell out"

Posted by: lisaann | Jun 22, 2006 12:52:14 PM

OH NO!!!! I've been checking in EVERY DAY to see when the booklet goes on sale! I can't believe I missed it!! You need to print WAAAAY more than 250 copies. PLEASE put me down on the waiting list!

Posted by: Janet | Jun 22, 2006 12:53:49 PM

I can't even tell you how bummed I am :( I waited FOREVER for the book to come out and it was sold out before I even got to a computer!

Le sigh :(

But, that said, congratulations. I will take my sorrows elsewhere!

Posted by: Mer | Jun 22, 2006 12:59:47 PM

Whew! That was close!

I'm glad I made the cut before I left the house this morning, because they were gone before I came back!

Posted by: lera | Jun 22, 2006 1:13:16 PM

(Congrats, though.)

Posted by: Alicia A. | Jun 22, 2006 1:14:59 PM

Missed it. I didn't manage to figure out the timezone the kids were acting up big time..

Posted by: mijk | Jun 22, 2006 1:19:50 PM

I missed it too. I'm glad you are planning to print more. It's sometimes hard for me to catch a morning shop when we are six hours behind.
Congrats though, on selling out! 250! You are one popular gal! (but we already knew that!) ;)

Posted by: Emily | Jun 22, 2006 1:23:58 PM

You should be so proud of yourself!!!!!!! That has to be a testimonial of how many of us love your creative talents! I started looking at your site a few months ago and have loved everything you do. Every day at lunch, I now eat in so I can check out whats new with you. I am so glad that I sat here with my finger on the button to order mine as I knew they would be sold out....in record time. Take time to celebrate your talent!!!!!!!

Posted by: Charmaine | Jun 22, 2006 1:28:53 PM

Missed it! So glad you're having more printed.
Congratulations on selling out so quickly even
though I wasn't lucky enough to get there in time.

Posted by: Shar | Jun 22, 2006 1:30:16 PM

I knew you'd sell out it a minute! I knew I wouldn't be part of the fray but will get one some day hopefully when they aren't the hottest thing in the blogworld!

Posted by: Amy | Jun 22, 2006 1:33:52 PM

Posted by: Stephanie Cullison | Jun 22, 2006 7:45:24 PM

CRAP SANDWICH! I totally missed this because I was in an all morning meeting (boooooring) and then I had to take my daughter to her 15 month doctor's appt., go to the grocery store, etc. Finally home and the first thing I checked was to try and get the book. PAH-LEEZ do a 2nd printing and I'll be sure to bail out of any future stupid meetings! ;)~

Cheers,
~reba

Posted by: Kitty Jimjams | Jun 23, 2006 1:34:27 AM

how brilliant you SOLD OUT :)
Yes I slept through my alarm to wake me up at 1AM so I missed out. I would be more than interested in buying it if you get more printed up, infact I will pay you before.......

Posted by: justine | Jun 23, 2006 2:49:57 AM

Oh I missed out by such a long way. Brilliant that you sold out. Well done! I'd love to be on your mailing list when you do a reprint. Thanks for all your lovely posts and cute softies.

Posted by: Em | Jun 23, 2006 4:41:26 AM

i knew you'd sell out! congratulations!

i also knew i had to sit there and hit refresh!
i'm so excited. i suspect these will be easier than the japanese patterns i have been noodling over (heh). i **just** bought a pfaff machine - maybe these will be the 1st things i sew on it!!!

thank you!

mari

Posted by: mary | Jun 23, 2006 5:26:02 AM

I feel strangely guilty that I seem to be the last commenter above able to get a copy--I seem to miss out on the angry chicken fun every time!

Anyhoo, if you have a reprint and there are enough to go around (imagine!), I would buy another couple of copies to give as gifts.

Posted by: Heels | Jun 23, 2006 8:25:20 AM

*pout*

Posted by: lori | Jun 23, 2006 6:03:38 PM

unfortunately, because of our time differences, i was unable to snag a copy because i was at work by the time you had them up for sale. i'd like to be put on a mailing list if you do indeed have a reprint.

Posted by: gillian | Jun 23, 2006 8:52:50 PM

Oh Poo, I missed out too!! Please add me to your reprint list. Looking at all the other disappointed people I think you need to do another run ;-)
