Mary Corbet‘s site, Needle ‘n’ Thread, offers a nearly endless wealth of needlework instructions and tips.

She’s meticulous in showing and describing each step and the reason for it, so the post is long. But when you’re through reading, you’ll have all the confidence you need to try this technique.
