Last Wednesday I got a call from a local delivery shop to schedule the delivery of my Koala Sewing Cabinet. Even though I tried hard to get them to deliver on Thursday or Friday (so I could have it for the weekend), Monday was scheduled. So excited about this delivery I'm sure you know. Saturday I was in the the middle of a manicure/pedicure and received a call from Koala. Surprised... The representative went on to tell me that they were sorry but the delivery for Monday had been cancelled. What? Turns out Koala still had my cabinet on their dock in Chicago. What? They had the paperwork mixed up and the wrong cabinet had been shipped to me. So disappointed I'm sure you know. I'm told the correct cabinet would ship on Monday. I'm to expect my cabinet now to arrive on Wednesday or Thursday in my area. Delivery hopefully can be Friday. Oh and since I'd not received the chair yet I asked about it. BACK ORDER!!! What? Since this is a taller cabinet I need a bar height chair to sew. Chair won't ship until sometime the first or second week of March! I've waited this long guess I'll need to wait a bit longer. Maybe I'll just have to borrow a friends bar stool...got one anyone?

The pineapples are beautiful, Sandi.
So maddening when you have your hopes up for something and they keep getting dashed!
Love the pineapples. You will soon have the perfect sewing room. Sorry about all the delays.
I love your pineapples! I'm so sorry your sewing room purchases keep getting delayed! Hopefully all the frustrations will be forgotten when you have your dream sewing space.
Sandi - I just love the pineapples. They are so, so adorable! Hang in there, you'll have that Koala, yet. Have a super day!
How disappointing!!! But you'll have your cabinet and chair before you know it! I just LOVE your pinapples - can't wait to see the finished quilt.
Your pineapple project is cute! Sorry to hear about your delivery problems with your new cabinet and chair. I know it is a disappointment.
Be patient, it is well worth the wait. You could always do a bunch of cutting while you wait for your chair. I would like to see (in person) how you stitched down the pineapples. You will be sharing this at Guild, right? You always have such beautiful sharing.
