After the sale at the Scarlet Thread and quick supper with Ellice at Noodles & Co., I returned to the Scarlet Thread for my handpainting canvas class.
Anna was a little bit disorganized at first, but this was due to have a tremendous sale day at the store. She's extremely talented and charming and the unorganized part was totally understandable. They apparently underestimated the amount of business they would get. Which is great news for any needlework store.
We all managed to jump right into the tracing the design on canvas part. It was the initial applying paint that had us intimidated. But we got over it. It's a beautiful peony design done in lavenders. The class took longer than she anticipated, so we'll be going back to finish our leaves and stems. I am amazed at how good this actually looks. And that I did it myself!
