Kreinik has posted a video tutorial on couching. Of course the tutor from the San Francisco School of Needlework and Design doing the demonstration is using Kreinik threads on fabric, but all this works on needlepoint canvas and it's interesting to watch. She has some good tips, too.

If you always wanted to try couching but didn't really understand written directions, this is a great resource. There are more videos on the SF School of Needlework's YouTube channel, too.
