I have been a big fan of Amy Mitten and her designs since I took one of her classes a few years ago. The project was one of her mystery classes " Not For Us Alone ". I still have not finished the piece but hope to this year. She had some other mystery pieces available for sale during the class and I purchased " Tour Van Holland " -- a Friesland style sampler based on her travels in the Netherlands and Germany. I finished this sampler a couple of years ago and it is one of my favorites. When Amy announced her on-line tutorial this year, I could not resist signing up for Friesland Winder's Keeper . Once the kit came in at the end of last month all other projects were tossed aside to work on this wonderful piece. I have completed all of the stitching but need to work on the back stitching around the pieces for finishing the keeper. The second part of the class will be at the end of March so I do have a little bit of time to get the back stitching completed.
