It is with heavy hearts we let you know that our Adelaide store will be closing at the end of March, as our lease in Franklin Street comes to an end. Although we have explored many options over the last few months with the hope to continue trading, over the last few years our running costs have increased significantly and we were unable to find a solution in Adelaide that would allow us to continue with our local retail presence. We acknowledge the deep disappointment that may be felt by our loyal customers, and we hope it is understandable that this was a difficult decision for our team, and certainly not one made lightly.
Our Adelaide store has brought us so much joy over the last few years, and although we are closing our retail store, our local customer base will certainly not be forgotten. Our Online Store now has a huge range of fabrics, a user-friendly website experience, dedicated customer service and fast shipping, as well as the capability to service the South Australian region.
We want to take a moment to thank the incredible staff members of our Adelaide store, our manager Tracy and her fantastic team, who have contributed immensely to the store's successes over the last four years. They have been instrumental in nurturing our local following; creatives, sewists, fashion and costume designers who we know will be sad to see our retail store go. We will continue to run the store as normal until Saturday 25th March, at which point our current lease expires.
Thank you again to all the people who have been a part of our Adelaide adventure!
We look forward to seeing you in store until the end of March.
