"Glitz and Glamour Sapphire"
Deb shares about this canvas piece:
I changed colors on everthing in this piece.
Now wish I had picked a lighter color canvas
because I have Jessica Crescent Stitches to add
and am having a hard time seeing the
placement of the stitches.
I may have to wait until the sun is shining
and take it outside to finish.
Ott light, Up light or white towel
under the piece are not helping.
If anyone has suggestions about how
to get light underneath
so that I can see to stitch
would be greatly appreciated!
May Class + September Class
Autumn Biscornu Stackers
In this class we will be making three
small biscornu’s in a fall pattern.
This is a Jeannette Douglas pattern.
The motifs for these are acrons, squirrels & fall flowers.
In the May (1st) class we will be working on x-stitching the motifs.
A few months later (September class)
we will be putting our biscourns together,
stacking them & tie them up with a ribbon.
Then you will have a nice decoration just in time for fall.
The kit will include: your pattern, fabric, buttons,
beads + overdyed threads.
You will need to supply the DMC threads for the class.
For those signing up, I will give out the DMC colors you will be needing,
at the April meeting.
Price: $22.00
Deadline for sign up: April meeting

Deb shares:
Started this angel in November
right before Thanksgiving
but didn't really get going
until January.
Still have a long way to go.
