I do love it when a plan comes together.  Yesterday was the last day of the Sitting Pretty Mystery Class.  We had background to stitch, the fishbowl and the tassels.

The most exciting part for me was the background.  I designed a new stitch which was a bit of a challenge but looks oh so pretty and I was able to launch a brand new thread that I am manufacturing!  Woo Hoo!  We all love a new thread, right?

Before you get too excited.  This is so new that I have one color so far.  I hope to have an assortment of colors by Fall but manufacturing is manufacturing and there are always twists and turns.

I am overdying Floche!  You know I love Floche and I love overdyes.  So what better match.  It’s yummy to stitch with and the colors dye beautifully.  More about the thread soon when I have more colors to share.  This is just a little preview to my wonderful stitching friends who allow me to share my love of stitching with them through the Mystery Classes.

Last but not least were the tassels.  Fun and easy to make with big big impact!

We have more canvases arriving this week so if you would like to stitch your own kitty, give us a call or order online.  We’ll pack it and send it winging its way to you.  All the ladies in class said this was the most fun piece ever!  They would know wouldn’t they?

In less than 2 weeks we start the next mystery class Lulu’s La Sirena.  A Frida Kahlo inspired mermaid with her mer-cat.  What a fun summertime piece.  It’s not too late to join the fun.  You can signup online or by calling us at410.296.0405.

Remember if you are taking a mystery class and happen to find yourself in town, you can always join the fun.  Janet was here yesterday for class and quickly got adopted into the silliness that is a class of mine.  Thanks for coming Janet it was a real treat.

See you all soon.
