Bitch Free Guide Available
The Bitch Canvas Done! |
http://www.bloominstitches.com/cheeky
If you are interested, email me at sgfromchnp@gmail.com and ask. This canvas comes in many color variations but if you have other colors, you can easily substitute a red Kreinik for a purple I used, etc. Hopefully the ideas I used for my lettering will also translate to other sayings canvases, too, so if you need ideas….
By the way, Pat Miller has done a guide for her version of this fun piece. Here it is made up as a pillow.
http://needleartnut.blogspot.com/2017/03/profanity-is-finished.html
I don't see it listed on her blog but ask her about it if you are interested.
