Brenda Hart's Cross Hatched Background

Ruth Schmuff's mystery class from last year finally came back from the finishers as a lovely pillow.  As usual, I updated the article about this Bedecked and Beadazzled class with the final product but I want to draw your attention to the background stitch.

Here's the article Ruth posted originally about the random cross hatched background, adapted from an idea from the great Brenda Hart.  Isn't it clever?!  Ruth has used this several times and shows off the stitch on one of the Shelly Penko canvases.

Brenda's a genius.
