Counted Canvaswork Treat

Liz Morrow's Mad Miters is now available on her website!  This is a modern, fun take on Bargello that was a class for the Cyber Stitchers this year but now that the class is over, Liz is making the booklet available for everyone.  By the way, if you want to see a variety of colorways, just type "mad miters" without the quotation marks in the search box at upper left corner of Liz' blog and hit Enter.
