Many
of the bags, especially the larger styles, are one of a kind, unique
pieces. Most fabric options are purchased in small quantities, usually
a half of a yard. Only a few prints, such as the Day of the Dead, and sock monkey
fabrics are replenished, the remainder are used for stock items, or
custom orders.
Why buy such small pieces of fabric?The large selection I am able to offer my customers is one reason.
An additional benefit is that it makes each product that much more
special, in most cases you will be the owner of a bag that is truly
unique to you. No one else, on the entire planet, will have one like
yours.
It's rare, in this world of mass production, to be able
to say that about your bag. You can tell the person, for whom you
bought a Zoe Designs bag, I had this custom made for you, no one else,
but you, has one.
Besides, as I said above, I love fabrics!
What customers sayMy
friend Katie (who has one of your bags) and I were at an arts and
crafts event in Indianapolis last weekend. We saw several vendors with
all kinds of bags - some using the same fabrics as you. But we agreed
that nothing we looked at came close to your quality. Extra kudos for
your customer service! I think we've gone back and forth on just three
Zeldina flaps as much as we did on my big custom bag. You are a gem,
Karen!

You've definitely raised the bar for online shopping! This was by far
the most fun and the most pleasant "purchase" I've ever made via the
Internet and the bonus is that I know I'm getting EXACTLY what I want.
I am sure you'll be hearing from me again in the new year... I already have ideas for more bags!
