Ruth Schmuff is about to start a new mystery class using this happy mod collage from Eye Candy.  I am really looking forward to this class as the design is one of my favorites from Ada Hayden, and I am curious to see how Ruth makes the central heart come forward and the four corner patterns recede a bit.  Canvases without a true background are always a challenge for me.  I use realism as a guide to choose stitches but when there is nothing like this in real life, I am without my usual guideposts!

Ruth is promising a special snap tray treat with this class, so if you are interested, don't miss signing up.  The trays may not be available once the actual class is over, although you can always sign up later for a past mystery piece.  Ruth's shop website has information about the class in case you are curious.
