I too thought about contacting them or the NY State Attorney General. Or the Postmaster General because selling folks services they fail to deliver and then not making any attempt to even return their unfinished project is likely considered mail fraud. And there is a considerable number of folks that have been affected, myself included. They had done several pieces for me (samplers) and my 'ghost' did beautiful work. They were working on a large piece for me which I had already paid for (based on their previous performances). Like others here I made multiple attempts to contact the wife (who was active in the business with her husband) with no response. I offered to eat the cost or even pay my ghost again to get my work, she didn't even extend the courtesy of a response. But I sent my letter with a signed returned receipt which she did sign to receive.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4686273156594002956.post-55198328023558595642017-02-01T08:50:24.696-05:002017-02-01T08:50:24.696-05:00Thanks for the update, Shannon.

Cross stitch, counted cross stitch, needlepoint, crewel, decrative embroidery on crazy quilts. I also piece quilts and do a simple serpentine quilting with my sewing machine. I would like to offer my services to anyone who needs a project done, but did not get it sent in. I now do counted cross stitch for Stoney Creek, and did stitching for Imagination and Precious Moments.
