A Tip on Getting Started

Vicky is starting her brand new SharonG canvas.  Among the excitements she shares are new colors and new threads and a good tip on why she started where she did.

By the way, here is SharonG's companion piece, Dog Walk.  The Art Deco cat piece Vicky is stitching is brand new and not on SharonG's website yet.

Good timing. I got that metallic twist for my "queen" when I pulled the threads for it. It is nice to see it anchored by beads and this gives me a great idea. Thanks for that Jane
