Has everyone received their material or their suit?

I haven't been able to get a reply from the seamstress via email and I can't find her number.

Yvonne, I know you've got enough to deal with, so don't worry about this right now. I'm just trying to see if I'm the only one having a problem getting my stuff.

This is very frustrating to say the least!!!!!
 
emailed you her phone #, Last on the list is: Cutest Sandgirl's pattern (if I am not mistaken), Lady Zam, and your suit. The wait is not with me shipping- or the material, cause I already shipped ALL of that out. I got it from her studio and cut it myself. I didn't want the others to have to wait any longer. She responds best by you calling her.
 
Thanks for the number!

I didn't have to call her. I just received an email from her. I guess she's been having troubles with a computer virus now. It's too bad. She seems to be really having a string of bad luck. She said she's trying to get the rest of the zam stuff finished in the next couple weeks. (crosses fingers ;) )
 
Whow, a second run and no one told me? I see that the run was for october, if there is any room left on this list, please let me know Zam I Am
 
There was no second run. These people were on the first run, they were also on the seamstress list, but I decided to take them off of the seamstress list and just give them their neoprene, because the seamstress wasn't showing signs that she could handle all the orders in time for C3. I didn't want others to be waylayed. The last three people are people whom she started sewing the suits for.

Kim most likely won't have her Zam done by C3 anyway. We've basically been collecting Zam parts for like 2 years now, but because it's all a waiting game for things like the pattern, someone making the gauntlets, etc, it's not happening fast. Therefore, we've basically stalled on the Zam progress until all the main things are available, then we can start working hard on this costume.

During the time since she's starting buying parts for her Zam, she's already started and completed FOUR other costumes, and Zam still has a long time to go. :facepalm
 
I feel your pain...I've completed a few other costumes as well, Boushh being one of them (granted that still has some mods/upgrades/changes that'll need to be made too).

Seems like this Zam thing is a never ending process. ;) I'd like mine to be done by CIII, but I'm doubting it'll happen. Ah well, better late then never I suppose.
 
Yeah... I'm pushing hard on the Zam right now... hoping and praying it will get done by C3... but it may not! :(

C3 will be a blast in any case - though all in all, I'd rather have a Zam costume to wear! :)
 
WOW!!! It's been two years since we started this (ad)venture and still no suit . Yvonne, I am not in any way pointing my bony finger at you ;) I'm very upset with the seamstress though. She just keeps giving me more excuses and later deadlines. I wonder what she would do if she were in my shoes?
 
I am so sorry I chose her for you guys. It really reeks that it's taking so entirely long. I haven't been in touch with anything costuming related because I have been sick and nautious everyday with my pregnancy and both of us having work related problems, I haven't been able to devote anytime to Zam or other things. I have been forced to drop all costuming related projects due to this pregnancy. Please, Cutest Sandgirl, Lady Zam and Moncal, coordinate amoungst yourselves a day where all three of you CALL her and complain about your issues and tell her that the deadline of February needs to be met. You need your suits/suit patterns. Don't accept excuses, say, you have paid for your product, and waiting 2 years is really unrealistic, because you haven't been able to make any conventions with your Zam suits. Say, you've even had other projects done already in the time that you've waited. Hubby just hopes that we can even make it to C3 because of the pregnancy. I am actually 10 weeks, not one month preggo. I am sorry I am unable to help further at this point, I am scared both my husband and I may lose our jobs. The reason why I sent out all the material to everyone else on the list, is cause I don't trust her timing.
 
Zam I Am said:
I Say, you've even had other projects done already in the time that you've waited.

Actually this is true. We've made Kimmy 3 other costumes that she's worn to conventions during the time after she ordered from this seamstress.

Hope you feel better, ZIA!!!
 
Thanks Yvonne! I know you're an awesome person and have done everything you can and now with EVERYTHING you've got to worry about, you've got to take care of yourself. I was just venting ;) We will keep bugging her. It's all we can do. If it wasn't clear across the country, I'd drive out there and knock on her door!

We've also completed several other costumes since this one started.
 
The seamstress just wrote me back and said our (everyone's) suits are almost done and should ship out next week.


(CROSSES FINGERS)


...... course, I've heard it all before .......... :facepalm
 
This weekend it's snowing hard. So, hopefully your stuff will be done? You know, she's kinda locked in? I dunno. :lol: I will still be shipping Lady Zam's and Cutest's patterns because I still have stuff that is owed to them that goes into the same shipment. Cal, pm sent. Cutest and Lady Z- I encourage you to bug her too, cause that way she feels the pressure and definately gets it done.
 
I almost can't believe it!!! :eek: :eek:

The suit arrived. Albeit, the post office nearly lost it but IT"S HERE!!! yay.

It's not right .... but.... it's here. I found a seamstress locally who could hopefully fix the bodice since the arms were still 5" too long and the shoulder seams were 3" down her arm.

How's everyone else's suits coming?????

Great news MonCal! :D Your Zam is really starting to come together now! You're gonna make C3 for sure! :D

My fabric is still rolled up on my work table... so I guess it's not coming along very far is it? ;)
