A Mystery--and a Little Dog, Too!

Ruth Schmuff has started her next mystery class, based on a watercolor-like design from Shelly Penko.  It's going to be interesting to see how Ruth handles all those competing areas of pattern.

Ann The Dazzler

Needle Artworks just announced a new design from Ann Strite-Kurz and a new class as well. The new design is called Diamond Dazzler.

The class is on open patterns, and includes lots of ways to hide stitches as you do light coverage or blackwork patterns.  Ann is an expert on complex, layered stitches which are unlike anyone else's work.  Check out her articles in Needlepoint Now and her free 2004 Stitch of the Month design for ANG on their website (second link).
