ONLINE MYSTERY CLASSES - LESSONS POSTED!
But first . . .
I am beside myself. This week I received an email from the RSN (Royal School of Needlework - UK) requesting permission to exhibit my Patriotic Angel Stumpwork piece in their upcoming exhibit at Hampton Court Palace 2020!
'Dear Sandra,
Faces and Figures in Embroidery exhibition
I am writing to ask if the RSN could borrow your stumpwork piece, as pictured, for the forthcoming exhibition at Hampton Court Palace.
The exhibition begins in September but we will need the piece here by Monday 19 August 2019 ready for hanging/displaying. The exhibition will continue until March 2020 and the piece would be ready for collection/return by the end of March 2020.'
Well my Angel may fly but I must get my feet back on the ground and get back to work! I am so blessed!
ONLINE MYSTERY CLASS PEEKS!
Santa Tags from Strictly Christmas got the letter tags filled in.
Gossips - We dressed our first Gossip in her red-white-blue finery.
This piece is so fun. Such a happy, colorful design. This lesson was about adjustment of stitches.

As you know, I love embellishments! Look at those shoe accents!
Lily Wreath from Raymond Crawford Designs
We added the conch shell and the pineapple this month. We did a little twist on this one.
NEW TO THE GROUP - COME JOIN US!
Mid-August will find us adding a new class to the lineup - Just a Sip from CBK Designs.
Students are still enrolling so there is still time if you would like to join us. Just email me at duodesignsinc@yahoo.com. The 6-packet lessons cost is $150 with you obtaining your canvas and threads from your LNS. If assistance is needed we are working with a shop that kits the class for us.
NEEDLES 'N FINS STITCHING ADVENTURES - join the Facebook Group!
Gosh the clock is really ticking on our upcoming Mediterranean Stitching Cruise! The packages will be mailed within the next few days for those who chose to purchase the optional kit.
Those who are bringing something from their stash are busily hunting for just what exactly they want to play with while we are all together. Can you imagine anything better than being with like-minded people, floating on the water and being spoiled crazy! It has to be the next thing to heaven. Such beautiful friendships develop. Hope you are amongst those coming with us.
Did you see the ad in Needlepoint Now for our next adventure - Tulip Time on The Rhine Stitching Cruise? We'll be setting sail in April 16-26, 2020. If you would like more details go to Needles 'N Fins Stitching Adventures Facebook page (join if you are not in the group) and review the brochure in the files section. If you would like your own copy of the brochure just email me at duodesignsinc@yahoo.com and we'll click one over to you.
We should be there during the full bloom time of all the wonderful flowers - mainly tulips but there are others believe it or not.
This is our smaller ship since we are on the river once more! They are so pleasant and serene. UniWorld does a fantastic job of spoiling us in every way possible.
