The So Sew Easy website has grown considerably over the last few months –so much so that we grew out of our server. \u00a0We're serving over 1 million pages of content to over 400,000 users each month. \u00a0Last week when launched the popular pattern, a large number of these users all wanted to view the article at the same time and our systems just couldn't handle it.<\/p>\n
