Hi,
So I finally found the time to sew my tights that I received with a sewing issue. (I wrote to you about this right away)
I tried to respect your no return policy and do the stitches.
But while sewing (it took me a while whereas I am a crafting person) I was thinking that, still, for the price of the legging, I wish I had receive a little something back as a client gesture to apologize for the inconvenience.
A small refund, or credit for example.
Have a nice day 😊
