Pat's Family in Needlepoint

Pat Wilson has assembled a gallery of original pillow designs she has designed and stitched to honor various members of her family. Aren't they great?  There's a wedding pillow and others that are dedicated to the memory of her grandparents.  It's a wonderful stitched family memory album.

Puddling--with Background and Railroading

I love listening to Sue talk about her stitching.  You always learn something. Today it's about how to keep overdyes from streaking when you stitch with them and how to railroad. There's a nice background stitch diagrammed, too!

By the way, the bottom area of her canvas she shows off is magnificent.
