Saturday Again!  YAY! 

Okay, it sneaked up on me.  I have nothing for my blog today.  I can recap some of the upcoming Online Mystery Classes for those of you who have recently joined us and are not familiar with these projects.

Upcoming mid-October we have:

Lesson 6 of Songbirds by Danji:


Lesson 6 means this will complete these beautiful birds and we will be looking to add another new design soon.

Lesson 4 of Cupcakes from BB Needlepoint:


These cute little cupcakes are affording us the opportunity to play with many different threads, embellishments and techniques.  Stay tuned to see what we will be sharing next.

Lesson 3 of Steampunk Cat from Brenda Stofft:


Background is done and we move on to lots of different techniques.

Lesson 2 of Santa Wreath Ornament from Raymond Crawford:


Like Cupcakes above this design gives us the opportunity to experiment with lots of different techniques, threads and embellishments.

In the near future we are adding to our Online Mystery Classes:  Registration Ongoing

Gingerbread House from Rebecca Wood:


Steampunk Witch from Brenda Stofft:


Moon Gazer from Brenda Stofft:


Reindeer Series from Raymond Crawford:


Snow Happy Trio  from Love You More:



Christmas Stars - 12 Days of Christmas from Raymond Crawford:

The wonderful Series from JP Needlepoint - Catitudes, Dog Gone Good and Every Bunny:
In addition, we have some ongoing projects that do not have deadline schedules.  These include Arctic Parade from Brenda Stofft:


And Professor Hooty from JP Needlepoint:

In between we squeeze in some fun Quickies from various designers.  They are smaller projects and are dealt with in a two-lesson schedule.  Stay tuned for what's coming up next in that venue.  In the past we have had USA Star, Eagle Star  (Raymond Crawford) and Uncle Sam (Pepperberry) .



 And, of course, the icing for it all is our upcoming Riverboat Stitching Cruise 'Party on the Po" which will begin October 19,2017!  Almost here!


Once we begin this adventure we will be taking registrations for our next Riverboat Cruise 'Stitching Down the Danube', October 2018.  For more information on these adventures follow our Facebook page Needles 'N Fins.  A brochure has been downloaded with the pertinent details for you to review. We'd love to have you join us.




The Online Mystery Classes generally - not always - involve 6 months of lessons - one lesson posted mid-month.  Most 6-lesson packets are $150 and are invoiced through PayPal.  Lessons are posted in a secret Facebook page.  If you are interested in participating in any of these classes or have questions, please email me at duodesignsinc@yahoo.com.
