Halloween Cruise Mayhem- Lesson Two
We’re back on board and stitching full steam ahead! This past Sunday, we hosted Lesson Two of Halloween Cruise Mayhem, one of our Mystery Classes featuring the wildly detailed (and wildly fun) canvas by Rebecca Wood. And yes, it’s BIG — 21 x 27 stretcher bars big — but we’re taking it in bite-sized, totally […]
Spooky Season Zecca Style
Welcome to the Haunted Forest (with Zecca flair, of course) Our brand-new club is here, and it’s a technicolor Halloween dream you can stitch!

He was already adorable with his little boots and bowtie, but you know I’m a girl who loves her sparkle. So I went rogue — again. 😇✨ I added crystals.Then I added more crystals.Then I stood […]
Garden Party Goals
Some gardens are carefully pruned. Others? They explode in technicolor and invite you to wander forever — just like My Neighbor’s Garden by Brooke Connor. This was a Mystery Class. You know what that means; the guide is filled with lots of photos. Now you can order a kit and create your own garden. This […]
