    The EGA newsletter was in my inbox this morning–I am always looking forward to it. I noted the info. about the Villanueva ( colcha?)

    Sorry, i haven’t posted in a while. I am truly enjoying this journey. I am stitching on Congress cloth with stretcher bars. I noticed that the canvas /stitches look slightly curved but I am confident this will be corrected when I have the completed Kimono stretched at my finishers.

    does anyone know of any blog posts that give encouraging reasons to enter a piece into a competition? I googled it several times and found Nothing. There were plenty on how to finish a project (framing etc.) but non to give encouragement to show their work at competition or local shows.

    @John Waddell, two months ago I asked you about the use of green in my kimono [you suggested that I pick up one of the greens in my Overdyed thread. Thought I matched it pretty well, but am not nuts about how it looks. Is there another green that might have more life in it? Maybe a yellow green? What do you think?] and I haven’t gotten a…[Read more]
