Horse Country Chic has a great little article about learning to needlepoint, with good advice about what sort of design to choose. There's a link to a video that will teach you to needlepoint in five minutes.

Of course what is a "boring" canvas varies according to your personal taste, so make sure you pick something you love, regardless of what anyone else thinks. You can browse the "Teach Yourself Needlepoint and Embellishment" tab here on Blog for help learning if the video isn't enough.
