With regard to your Stitch Guide, Vol. I, I wanted to tell
you how I use it to full advantage. As I told you, long ago (hah) while
in my mid-twenties, I took needlepoint classes every Saturday for about
6 months, learning several stitches each weekend. From then until a
few years ago, many years passed without my stitching anything. When I
finally started again, I strictly used the Continental
Stitch........until the arrival of your on-line guide. I placed an icon
for it on the desktop of my laptop, which always resides on the table
next to my recliner. When I stitch these days, I simply open my
Stitching Guide and leave it on my laptop next to me. Whichever stitch I
may choose to use, it's opened right there.......I simply tap my
spacebar when I need to review a stitch, or want to find a different one
to use on my canvas. This is MUCH handier than a book and has made a
big difference, as far as my
willingness to try a different stitch for a different area on my
canvas.
Thank you for helping me get to this point.......my canvases will
be more interesting and challenging because of the stitch variations.
I'm looking forward to learning more stitches when you e-mail Volume II
to all your subscribers.
Sincerely,
Bonne Ledlow
