Drapes/Ambruso

I've talked with Audrey at JPA Drapes several times and emailed her with measurements to have drapes made for our Airstream. In the last couple of days, the email won't go through and the phone is not working. Does anyone have any other contact information?

They are highly recommended. I just find it odd that suddenly email and phone lines are not available. My wife and I have both spoken with Audrey, sent her measurements and our fabric sample. She just last week gave me a quote.

JPA Drapes - Contact Information

Audrey is currenly in process of making new drapes for the bedroom area of our Airstream. When we initially tried contacting JPA Drapes using the email address on their website (info@jpadrpaes.com) we never were successful in getting that email address to work either. The email would be returned as "undeliverable." We finally called and spoke to them by telephone to initiate our drapery purchase. The telephone # that we usually leave a voice message for Audrey at is 800-813-7686.

Thank you both so much for your response. I did get an email to go through today and was able to leave a message on the phone although the voice mail was an automated computer message not identifying who I had reached, just the phone number which was correct. We have already purchased our material, after samples were sent to Audrey for approval. I actually was trying to reach her yesterday to make her aware that I would be sending the fabric soon. I spoke with her just last week and got a final quote and she put me on her calendar for September 22. She has been very responsive, knowledgeable and helpful. I was just alarmed when I could not get through. I might add that some on the forum have mentioned Tammy at Silver Threads, but I have sent her several emails beginning at the same time I first contacted JPA Drapes about a month ago. I told Tammy in an email that I would like to speak with her about our unit and discuss with her our drape project. She sent a vague response to my email but never gave me a call or gave me a number or time to call her. I would not have confidence in anyone who is not willing to communicate with me since this is not an inexpensive project. Also, I want to be confident that the work will be very professional and high qualtiy. All customers who have reported on JPA have said it was excellent work and they were totally pleased.

All is well with JPA Drapes!

Audrey just called me and said to post that she went away for a few days and lightning struck while she was away and took out their internet and phone lines.
Everything is repaired now and they are on schedule. I'm down for the September 26th to have mine drapes made.

Drapes for sale

The drapes in the unit currently are all in good shape. We are renovating the interior and are replacing the drapes as part of the new color scheme. I am going to advertise the current drapes for sale. What would be a reasonable price to list them for?

JPA Drapes

She did my drapes in late July, I got a little nervous and she was hard to reach after putting in my deposit and vacation looming. The fabric bolt I selected turned out defective so I bought my own fabric and shipped it to Audrey. Turned out MUCH better as I got a designer fabrics but with Audrey's expertise in sewing. They came in 2 days before we left and fit perfectly.

They made the drapes for my 76 31'Sovereign. The quality of their work is the best out there. Worth every penny.

I'm really glad to hear that. We chose our fabrics also and Audrey called my wife earlier this week to say she was starting on our drapes. She has been a pleasure to work with although she is not always accessible immediately due to the demand.

This thread is now more than 10 years old, but I am new to this, and looking for drapes for my 1976 Sovereign. Is JPA Drapes still in business? Has anyone purchased from them lately? Any other recommendations?
