Why have we made a holiday collecton?
At the end of last month, for the very first time, Heidi was away without Joss holding the AL fort. We've always been a hands-on team, with a lot of manual adjustments, order checks, and printing of make stickers. A wealth of knowledge resides in Heidi's head (and Joss's too). Heidi is also one half of the cutting team, so without sufficient cutting, the sewing team wouldn't have enough work to sew.
This presented us with a dilemma: How could Heidi take time off without closing the studio for a week?
