<Chuckle> Now, how did I know it was going to be your name at the top
of this thread before I even clicked on it? 8^D
I'm getting my nerve up to try it, but I need to get my basics down
first, and I'm a slow learner...

Nice stuff though.

I just took a class from Linda Fiedler on thread painting at my guild. It
was fun and actually pretty easy. We started out with butterflies. I also
attended a lecture at Houston this year from Nancy Prince. Both their
techniques were similar, with some slight differences.

Last spring my guild held a workshop in thread painting. Had a great time,
picked up a few tips, and completed 2 thread painted projects!
The one thing I learned was that you have to have a greater contrast in your
thread colours than I thought. The workshop was a tulip project, and I had
brought a whole range of thread colours to work with, and only used the
darkest, lightest and middle range - tried some of the others, but they
didn't really make a difference....
It sure is fun!
