IKEA ftw.

@Matt
Yea, in this situation it really was.
With their economy of scale they make some awesome thing for the price from time to time.
Especially when you look at the higher priced items.
For years I’ve been using their linen bed set, and enjoying at least half the price of some other brands while the quality is exactly the same.

Finally got mine today!
So at the end of wardrobe space you turn to accessories and home decoration, right?

What have y'all filled yours with? I just got two black herringbone ones in the mail today.

I bought 18"x18" down pillows on Amazon for like $20. Fit PERFECTLY.

I had a pretty similar package to yours arrive at my house last week.

[Oaktavia]

Filled mine with goose feather inserts. I love them!

[Karol]

@Oaktavia they look awesome!!
I got my hand on one of these but I’m saving it for now.

[Karol]

I found new place for the rest.

[Karol]

I found the place where the durability of this herringbone flannel will be put to ultimate test
… and I can extend the life of this chair.

[Karol]

I really hope that early next year we will get another batch of these cushion covers. This might be my most versatile IH piece

Getting some fresh air after the thunderstorm.

[doubletee]

Wow I need these in my life!

[Karol]

@doubletee yes You do.

[JerkStore]

Any timing for a fall release like last year?

[Karol]

IHG-103 SAX
IH-888S-21

Are any new planned for this winter? I mean the IHG-103

[Alex]

We will continue to make them, but as I have talked about what feels like thousands of times, we have big production issues at the moment. We are not going to delay the release of a shirt to make some cushion covers, etc etc

[Karol]

@Alex I see - sewing facility being the bottleneck again. Absolutely supporting Your priorities, waiting for one of those shirts as well

[goosehd]

@Karol You have to look at a bigger picture than just a sewing facility. Think about how many different items are released by IH every season and the everything that goes into it. There are multiple processes involved for each single item to be made with multiple choke points along the way.

To say it’s just sewing is only looking on a microscopic level.

There is just not enough room, money, time, people, equipment, etc. to make more or as quickly as we would like.

[goosehd]

Think about it this way:

Cotton for the UHF’s is grown by farmers and all crops are subject to weather conditions, insects, and workers/equipment to pick that crop.

The crop then has to be turned into threads which are then dyed, woven into fabric, and then sent to pattern cutters. Then you have the sewing facility putting it all together. You have quality control checks, and then shipping.

Quite a few bumps in the road, which are all dependent on the prior steps, staffing, money being paid out along the way, and machinery that needs maintenance.

Any issues can cause multiple issues down the line. Quite often if there is an issue everything gets pushed back and other items get bumped up to keep things flowing.
