Ruth Schmuff has revealed the newest mystery class starting this July—it's "Fleur" the royal hamster from Kimberly! This will be a quick class, as it is happening in the summer when there are lots of distractions, but it's a real cutie. I'll update this as Ruth posts progress reports.

UPDATE: Stitching animals is always hard as folks are scared to death of needle painting (also called thread painting). Looks like Ruth is doing a modified needle painting technique mixed with a variety of other stitches to create the little Fleur's body and paws and face. Interesting!

UPDATE #2: This was a quick class. Fleur has a tiara now (and some fabulous backgrounds).
