June's Ten Minute Tip

A big thank you to uber stitcher Penny for giving us a wonderful ten minute tip on hand embroidery.

Penny's not only a talented artist and needlewoman but she's a great teacher.  Embroidery a la Penny is to be free and fun and not too tied up with techniques and method.

As we can see from her samples a few simple stitches can make a huge impact on your work.
