THE MYSTERY OF
YOLANDA
Yolanda
Mystery
plans are moving right along. More and
more are signing up to participate. You
still have time to join in. She is going
to be so much fun. Grab some of your
friends and plan to meet and work on her together. What fun and giggles will develop! I have some shops that are offering stitching
space for their customers to meet when the new section of the stitch guide is
released and they will share the adventure together. Doesn’t that sound like a bit of social fun?
Yolanda
is a colorful, beautifully painted canvas offered by
Tapestry Fair. Her canvas size is 15” x
18”. So, that means you will need one
set of stretcher bars that are 15” and one set of stretcher bars that are
18”. Don’t forget the tacks or staples,
however you choose to affix her to the stretcher bars, to keep her nice and
snug. And while you are at it, and since
it is Christmas, if you don’t already have one, a nice floor stand would come
in handy, hint, hint, Santa.
For those of you who do not have a local needlepoint
shop who can get the Yolanda canvas and supplies for you, I have contacted some of the
following shops where I have recently taught and I specifically have asked to be sure that they
will be willing to get them for you. They are listed in alphabetical order.
Feel free to contact them. Be sure to
ask about stretcher bars as well should you need them. If you still have a problem you can, of
course, always contact me and I'll be happy to represent you.

You
still have plenty of time, of course, since the first class will not be until
March, but some of you are getting anxious.
And some of you are really, really, wanting to have this beautiful thing
under the tree for Christmas. So,
anything we can do to enable the stash enhancement we are on the ready!
To sign up just send email to: duodesignsinc@yahoo.com

WEDNESDAY WHIMSIES
Good morning !
Yep, Wednesday rolled around again and this time it is in December. Can you believe it. Well, like most of you, I am caught up in the Holiday festivities. I have decorating to do, parties to plan, parties to attend, oh, and did I mention stitching to finish?
Anyway, to make a long story short, I am going to put Wednesday Whimsies on hold until after the Holidays because I want to have fun too! I plan to enjoy my family and friends and I hope you will do the same!
May you all have a wonderful holiday however you choose to celebrate it!
And remember to stitch with a smile and remember those less fortunate than we and those who are sacrificing for our freedom!
