Two Doves
Some canvases just have a vibe. A flow. A certain rhythm that you can’t quite explain… but you know it when you see it.
That’s exactly how I feel about Two Doves by Mattye Hamilton.

This painterly canvas is pure elegance—a graceful swirl of color, texture, and imagination. It’s not meant to be literal. It’s not meant to be stiff. It’s meant to feel like art. And thanks to Catherine’s stitching wizardry, it absolutely sings.

✨ From the swooping curves of the birds to the punchy pops of color in the background, everything in this design is stitched to emphasize movement and energy. The stitch guide that comes with this piece is packed with just the right balance of freedom and structure. It lets the lines flow and the textures dance—while still making it clear how to bring it all together.

I wrote this guide awhile ago but it’s never debuted in Zoom-bellishment. Next weekend is it’s showgirl moment!

Now’s your chance to grab a kit of your own.

The last lesson of My New Skull is this Sunday. It is a show stopper! Lots and lots of details. We have kits ready to go so you can stitch in season. Here’s the link to order.

Our holiday mystery has been announced and it is Pawsitively Adobrable! – Santa’s Pup by Margaret King. Join us on zoom November 16, December 14 and January 4th as we make this little guy sparkle. Here’s the link. If zoom’s not your thing, we are happy to send you a kit.

Another of our current mystery classes is Robotic Uprising by David Galchutt. We are five classes in. The sixth class will be as soon as threads arrive. Stay tuned for that date. All classes are on zoom! We have canvases available. I promise this is a fun stitch. Here’s the link to join the Uprising.

Not to be left out, we have a fabulous Zecca canvas, Window of Opportunity starting as a mystery very very soon. This one won’t be on zoom — it’s a series of kits mailed straight to your door. Each panel of this triptych fits on 12×15 bars—easy to hold, but when framed? A total showstopper. Here’s the link for this one.
