Has anyone used the site this week? I would like to take advantage of their sale today but I'm a bit skittish after the problems of the past two weekends.

I ordered some stuff earlier in the week and my order was shipped out already. I just went over there and I did have to log in (usually it remembers me), but everything looked okay.

I placed and order last night around 11:45 and it was running so slow, I was concerned that I would complete the order before midnight but I was able to do so. Today, I can't access the site at all. They seem to be having some serious tech issues.

I was just about to post that I can't get on any part of it either. Wonder if they've discovered same breach as previously or other issues? I was going to see if perhaps there were new Vogues since there's a new magazine out and they seem to have learned their lesson not to post new patterns during a sale when they really don't want us to buy new patterns on sale and we're not buying that "sold out" business.

Anyway - Vogue and McCalls are on sale now at Joann's.

Did anyone have a problem with the order process? I tried 3 times over the past 6 weeks to order some patterns and I couldn't get from the cart to the actual order placement. It would not click over. I called them and they said to be sure and put in my country and zip. I did that and it still would not go to the actual order page. I had to call and place my order via phone. I was curious if anyone else had this problem.

I couldn't even get the site to open yesterday. I have been having issues with it running very slowly every time I've been on recently. Anyone else have the same problem?

I hope they didn't hire Simplicity's web designer.
