Hot Fun in the Summertime (with your needle and Barbara)

Barbara Bergsten has been experimenting with video and music to showcase her stitch painted canvases that come with stitch guides and great stitch diagrams. You'll see the bare canvases, the diagrammed stitches (you download those free from her website) and stitched examples.  Easy and fun, that's Barbara's mantra.  This link is to her blog so after you click on the underlined title and sing among to the music, you can go back and explore her website.

Very clever advertising, Barbara!

You couldn't stop me blabbing about the animated stitch diagrams if you tried! So many folks have trouble understanding written instructions, that this will be a great resource.
