This morning I had a conversation with my contractor, and it looks like I might use him to make patterns and samples for both the briefcase and the totebag. A lot of my angst is gone now, because I know I can trust this guy to get the job done.
I left a message with the local manufacturer this afternoon– he said he’d let me know by the end of this week whether they’d be able to help me out with production, and I haven’t heard a peep out of him. I figure I’ll give him till mid-day Monday to contact me, and if he is still MIA, then I’ll go ahead and mail the other samples to other manufacturers. I am disappointed that this guy didn’t call me back to give me any kind of update. And what’s worse is that he is holding my sample hostage! When I met with those guys a week ago, the main door was locked so I walked to the back of the building and came in via the private seamstresses’ entrance. Worst case scenario is that I enter the premises via the back door again and demand that they give me my sample back. Sure, I might be trespassing, but they’d know that I mean business!
OK, it’s too hot to type. The fan on my computer is blowing hot air and contributing to the hot temperature in my apartment.
Have a good weekend!
