This is my second class to watch with Rebecca and I planning to watch them all. I really enjoy her laid back attitude. Her "don't rush it" approach is what I take when making my beading jewelry. Much more enjoyable and rewarding (less mistakes) when taking it slowly, and somewhat meditatively. Love how she compares an area filled with French knots to broccoli. Funny and definitely a great image.
Love the whimsical patterns Rebecca designed for the front of her pattern weights. I'm not sure I'll use them as pattern weights, as I'm old fashion and feel more secure with pins. But I love sachets and ornaments, so I really enjoyed this short class. It's fun to see how she and her 2 friends stitched of their pieces differently and each are lovely.
Lastly, I really appreciate learning to add fabric to make the piece bigger so the project will fill the hoop without cutting off any portion of the design. I have several Christmas angel cross stich ornament kits which I bought decades ago. I haven't made them because it never occurred to me to add more fabric for a greater margin. Uh, duh!

Felt a little cheated that the designs had to be bought seperately. This was not clear at the start.
