Kim,

    I think we all have been through this,, to some extent, I think
    women get hit harder than the guys, the reasoning I was blown away
    with,,,, they have to support their families and we have
    husbands...I have been told that on several occasions. When you start
    a business you go to friends and family first, sounds like that
    route has dried up for you,,,it is time to hit the pavement and go
    for your customers. 

    Give your sister in-law a call ask her to return the merchandise
    that is'nt paid for, you understand money is tight,,but you have
    people that will pay and you are not in position to gift your
    designs any longer,,remind her you have bills and like to eat as
    well. If this approach is too harsh, remember she will be family for
    a long long time,,, just write it off and learn a lesson about dear
    "sister". Very and I mean Very few of us have been successful when
    working with or for family. 

Good Luck,
Lisa McConnell
