Brenda and Cheryl at Needlepoint For Fun have written an interesting article on how to stitch a curved line on the grid of a needlepoint canvas.
http://www.needlepoint-for-fun.com/stitch-a-needlepoint-curve.htm
This is a question that comes up a lot on Facebook's needlepoint group, so I've added it to the Tutorials and Hints tab for reference later. By the way, I usually use stem stitch or outline stitch to create curves. Just FYI.

Ruth's Mysteries for 2015
Ruth Schmuff has announced her mystery classes for the first part of 2015. The mystery for February-March is Amy Bruecken's "When In Doubt Twirl," featuring a penguin. The March - May class is Kimberly's "Emma's Darling Bird." Both canvases are distributed by Ruth and you can find more information on her website (second link below).

You don't have to be present to take the classes (Ruth does mail order in a fabulous fashion!) and you can wait a bit and see how things develop if you aren't quite sure before you add the class to your stitching schedule.
