    My apologies, but it was never included as I wasn't sure how/if the material could be split/posted or if you'd have to cross ship the order yourself. I also don't know if they will get THAT fractional in their cutting, you may end up at either 6.5 or 7. I'll enquire about that when I post out colour chips.

    As the order stands now:

    Me - 3
    Drac - 11
    EldarKinSlayer - 4
    Jordan - 4**
    Dale Seago - 9
    Llwyd - 2
    Calico - 4
    Danwell - 2.5
    kc8ufv - 5
    g koch - 4
    Hocfutue - 3
    Kiltboy - 5
    jason10mm - 8
    Heartbeat2k9 - 4
    CDNSushi - 3
    Stilleto Rebel - 4
    Herminator - 3
    rmckay - 3
    NorCalPiper - 2.5
    Poohspot18 - 3
    Bonnetmaker - 3
    Michael Flemming - 10
    Geoff Withnell - 4
    Ryan Ross 3
    Droid - 5
    BruceK - 5
    Wolfhawk - 8
    TurboKittie - 3

    126.5 yds.

    If there is anyone else out there who gave a maybe/sorta or a conditional yes, now is the time to let me know if you want in. I don't want anyone to get lost in the last minute scramble.

    Now is also the time to get our individual financial ducks in a row. When the time comes to order, we won't be able to wait for anyone beyond the time from final quote to sending the order (about a week). I'd hate for people to get left out


    This is primarily due to the fluctuating exchange rates, with this amount of yardage even a few tenths of a pound shift will cause a shortfall that I don't personally want to fill.

    As of right now the costs are as follows:

    ~21GBP for the yardage itself (currently ~$34.68)

    if you are in the US we have:
    +3% (+$.30) for paypal fees
    +3% to cover the international currency fee from my CC (this may go away if Dalgliesh will accept paypal)

    for a rough total of $37.05/yd

    For non-US orderers:
    +4% (+$.40) for paypal fees
    +3% to cover the international currency fee from my CC (this may go away if Dalgliesh will accept paypal)

    for a rough total of $37.55/yd

    I'll end up doing the final math and posting a US/non US total per/yd once we have the final quote and based on the week's exchange rates. But these should give everyone a good idea of what the final yardage costs should be - barring wild currency swings.

    If the currency exchanges are very volatile we may have to either have a smaller ordering window or add a few cents per yard to cover market swings.
