Yesterday was the last lesson David Galchutt’s Sudden Realization Mystery Class. I started with the plan of stitching this in 4 lessons, it grew to 5 and I probably could have turned it into 6. There are just so many tiny fabulous details on this canvas. I may be wishing for another lesson but we […]

Details and Texture Oh My!
Here we are at lesson four of Sudden Realization by David Galchutt. This is our current Mystery Class. We covered a lot of real estate in this lesson. I’m leaving all the glamorous details for the next lesson. LOL. It’s never to late to join the fun. With each lesson of the Mystery, more is […]
