Gay Ann Rogers is celebrating her imminent retirement from traveling to teach by posting beginner needlepointer's questions on her website. Whether you mostly do counted canvaswork like Gay Ann's students do, or whether you are a painted canvas fan (or even an embroiderer), you will find her answers very enlightening.

Pay special heed to the answer to Question 21: "If no stitch guide is available, how do you decide which stitches to use?"

This is a question I have trouble formulating a good answer to but I am about to try.
UPDATE: Gay Ann's website no longer has the above on display but you may be able to find it by Googling "Gay Ann Rogers choose stitches" and then clicking on the Cached link under the results.
