Sandy's Stitching

Hectic Weekend so short blog

Just popping in to let you all know all is well at Arthur Acres.

Now that the Spring Market is over and we are looking at Dallas, we are auditioning new pieces for our upcoming Online Mystery Classes. Send me an email as you see pieces that you are interested in doing with us.  duodesignsinc@yahoo.com

Shared lessons this past week for the Online Mystery Classes.

Dana from Penny MacLeod had more or her border done and we included all the stars in the sky.

The Lily Wreath from Raymond Crawford had some new fun ornaments added this month.

Spooky Tags from Strictly Christmas joined us this month for their first appearance. We worked in a darning pattern background from an older Halloween design stitched several years ago.

Compensation was a bit of a headache on this one but the results were worth it.

You still have time to join this class if you would like to.  The 6 lesson packet is $150 and we post one lesson a month.  Just email me at duodesignsinc@yahoo.com.  And canvases are available too.

The next new class is Gossips from Strictly Christmas.  Be sure to register right away as the first lesson is scheduled to be posted mid-May.

This design will be offered in 7 lessons - same price.  So if you want to join just email me at duodesignsinc@yahoo.com.  The 7-lesson packet is still $150 for this first trial run of spreading out the techniques.

Registration is also in progress for the next canvas by Strictly Christmas - Santa Tags.  These are such happy and fun pieces. The first lesson for this is scheduled for mid-June.

Gonna be several surprises on this one. Can't wait to share with you.  Just let us know if you want to be included.

Lots of activity going on over at Needles 'N Fins Stitching Adventures.  You may join this Facebook page and follow along if you like.  We're auditioning our upcoming stitching cruising/adventures - come give us your feedback too.  All suggestions/ideas welcome.

There is still some room on the Azamara Pursuit for the Mediterranean Stitching Adventure this October if contact Liz our agent at lwolak@vikingtvl.com or me at duodesignsinc@yahoo.com for more details.  Here is a picture of the optional class for this journey.  Those who are familiar with my work know this is not going to be a simple basketweave rendering - lol! 

And, of course, there are some surprises I have up my sleeves too.  This trip we have a full day at sea to play!

Have a great holiday weekend however you choose to celebrate.
