I took a class at the June 1 meeting of my EGA chapter -- Constellation, in MD, for anyone who may be interested. I've never done this kind of needlepoint before (although some of the stitches are familiar), and I've already gone off the rails, in terms of following the pattern, but hey, what can you do? The original project was a yardstick sleeve, but I'm decided mine's going to be the top band of a totebag.... My base fabric is 18ct khaki canvas.
Criss-cross Hungarian stitch in Caron Collection Watercolors 'Nefertiti #008'
I've done the border piece and started on the next section:
Border = bundled faggot stitch in #5 DMC Perle cotton #676 and #420 and Band #2 = Milanese stitch in #5 DMC Perle cotton #4045 and #4210
