After hesitating for a few months, I finally got out the kits I purchased last June. First I made the trivet with small gauge canvas as it was for a Christmas gift It was so easy and beautiful! It was helpful to have Theresa's book for additional guidance. Now I'm working on the small basket in the Indigo Jewels colorway and experiencing the difference between the sizes of canvas and fabric strips and also how to connect two pieces. It was great to have the prepared kits. Soon I will begin making coasters with a combination of wool rug yarn and batik fabric strips. I think there's a rug in my future also. There is only one problem... it's taking some of my knitting time, but the quick results and simple finishing are so welcome. The coasters will also be easy to transport to work on while waiting for appointments, and I'll be sharing this functional craft with my fellow yarn/knitting/crocheting/weaving friends. Thanks for your attention to detail. I will be ordering again!
