It has been a tough month of decisions, but one I know is right for the long term growth and sustainability of UXS. The newsletter was retired this month! The cost just did not make sense anymore. As is the case with most newsletter whateveryouwannacallems, they charge you based on number of subscribers. Despite mothly clean ups I had to do manually (they charge you extra if you want to do it automatically) I still kept growing which was great. But the problem was the growing cost. In this economy, it didn't make sense to keep something so expensive. 

The website updates have continued, with files being upgraded and also the ZIP folder rollout. I worked backwards from oldest products until I hit where I was up to with updating the actual pattern files, so all the older ones I had previously worked on and updated are now in Zips. I am now working 'forwards' from newest products to do the same in terms of getting them into Zips. 

I am hopeful to write here more often, in place of a newsletter. Thank you everyone for your continuing support! Without your support, I wouldn't be here :D
