Fox Adventure in Embellishment Needlepoint
When we embellish a counted canvas needlepoint design, we are adding or changing something to make it our own. That can be adding or changing all the colors or just one color. It can be adding or changing a stitch. Adding a charm, beads or trinket embellishes a piece. This is a design set up to give a chance to try your hand at embellishment. It will make a good class or guild project. Contact Eileen at Handblessings.
