The New Adventures of DUNCE PROOF PATTERNS

HI,
We are still working on all the details but we can safely say we are on a roll. We are making contacts daily and will have our logo online soon for all to see.

Can you say EXCITED? We certainly are and hope that when our first patterns are published you will be excited as well.

DUNCE PROOF will be just that, DUNCE PROOF.
We have our own resident self proclaimed "DUNCE" to DUNCE PROOF all our patterns before they are ever released for publication.

Patterns will be available first as e-patterns (PDF) then on paper. Not sure of the details on that yet but we will let you know as soon as we do!

Can you feel our excitement and anticipation?
We hope so.

In and Because of HIM,
Susan
