Mary Corbet just posted a bit about the new blog that the editor of Inspirations magazine has set up. So I headed over to check it out and stumbled across this fascinating article on Or Nue.

Or Nue can be done in the round, too.

It makes a spectacular background as you can see in Alison Cole's goldwork kits.

You can follow the link in the blog article to more about Or Nue or you can head to this free project by the late Mary Duckworth to try it out. Gorgeous stuff!
