Fans of counted designs are going to go wild over Sara Leigh's revived blog. Sara Leigh's photography when she ran Scarlet Thread was outstanding, so you know you are going to love the pictures of her Works in Progress (WIPs). Let's hope Sara Leith will show many of these designs again as she works on them.

If you are new to counted canvaswork, Sara Leigh will introduce you to designers you've never heard of. Check the "Counted Canvaswork Designers" tab here on Blog to help you discover where to get these wonderful charts. Some are no longer available and some are class pieces only, but occasionally you can pick up old class projects from the designer.

Thanks for the shout-out, Jane. That post is the first in my WIP tally series. Yikes! Many more counted and painted canvas, and even a counted thread piece or two. I need to get back to stitching. Then it's on to the on-deck projects and kitted projects.
I am enjoying it. I don't do much counted canvaswork as correct counting is hard for me so this is going to be fun. You are showing things I had no idea existed! Maybe you'll lure ME to the dark side, too! Hugs from CH, J
