Bat Body
Two lesson mystery classes go by so fast. No surprise, I know. But if you blink, you miss it. Last weekend we completed the Zecca Long Bat Mystery Class. There really wasn’t much to do but it really needed to be different. The background turned into a night sky with streaks of wonderful color thanks […]
Lovestruck Romeo
For all of my romantics, here’s our Lovestruck Romeo from Sharon Hendy-Moman. It’s a wonderful scene with so much detail and movement. This is a brand new canvas that I hope you will love. There are miles of pretty ribbon flowers. The sweet looks on their faces are so endearing. The canvas is 11 x […]
WHOO? What?
Zecca never fails to make us happy. Another of her owls made it’s way to our zoom-bellishment class last weekend. What a cutie he is. WHOO? The art is a petite 8.5 x 12 so he will quickly come to life on your canvas. I got to use all the pretty pinks when designing this […]
It’s a Collage
Now for something totally different. A brand new collage from Helen Heins Peterson. I love collages. There are so many little gems in a collage. It’s like 5 mini canvases in one. What a great sense of gratification to finish an area. This canvas uses all the best colors and beads! You know I love […]
Constant Companion is Finished
David Galchutt is always a fan favorite in Zoom-bellishment classes. Not only did we have the brand new A Lively View from Kent but Constant Companion came to class too! She is absolutely stunning. There’s tons of detail in this canvas. It’s not terribly big at 15.5 x 12 on 18ct. The stitchguide is included. […]
Lizards and Chameleons
I seem to have developed an affinity for lizards. Not really sure when that happened, but it’s true. Zecca has a brand new ridiculously cute lizard! Tasty Snack. Of course it needed it’s stitchguide to be launched during Zoom-bellishment! What better time? This is another long canvas, measuring 6″ x 24″ on 18ct. Tasty Snack […]
New David Galchutt
David Galchutt is one of our favorite artists from my line. His work is very classic with just a twist of whimsy. We have two new canvases to share. A Lively View from Kent has a brand new stitchguide thanks to being a fan favorite in Zoom-bellishment this weekend. This one is going to be […]
Spooky Zoom
Several people in class requested my Haunted House canvas join the Zoom-bellishment party this weekend. The stitchguide was given an overhaul thanks to changes in threads but I do love this canvas. The glitter frame makes me happy too! I’m not even close to being decorated for Halloween but this piece is out. This is […]
Are you ready?
This weekend is Zoom-bellishment. We have 32 people in class and 13 different projects. What was I thinking? It will be great! That’s what I was thinking and I know it’s true. I’m aiming for a post a day to show you the 13 different projects. We shall see if I can keep up. Let’s […]
Thanksgiving Plans?
What do you have planned for this Thanksgiving? Who wants to join me for Friends-giving? Each Thanksgiving we select a special piece to stitch. I write the guide and we get together for three spectacular days of friends and stitching. What is this year’s canvas? Designed exclusively for us by the one and only Kelly […]
Bat Wings
Last weekend was the first lesson the Zecca Long Bat Mystery Class. I changed things up a bit and we didn’t stitch the background first this time. Whaaaat? We did however create his super cute face so that he could see what was going on. It’s very important that the characters can see what’s happening. […]
The Steampunk Fairy is Ready for her Curtain Call
I’m gearing up for Zoom-bellishment next weekend which means you are about to get a lot of fun emails showing what’s new and newer than new! YAY! Until then let’s stay grounded in Spooky Season. This was a Mystery Class from a couple of years ago that never fails to disappoint and make us smile. […]
