Stash-busting challenge from Janet Perry

Janet Perry of Nuts About Needlepoint challenges you to learn a new technique — converting a cross-stitch chart to needlepoint — and bust your stash at the same time. She invites readers to apply a variety of stitches and threads to the lovely abstract chart designed by Connie G. Barwick of About.com. The challenge ends July 2, and the winner will receive a copy of Janet’s Needlepoint Trade Secrets. Find out more.
