TIP OF THE MONTH 
When you're finishing off a piece of yarn, make sure to run the 
tail through the same color.  If you run a darker color through 
a lighter color you run the risk 
of seeing it on the front and possibly having it bleed if the piece gets wet.

STITCH OF THE MONTH

Alternating Oblique Stitch 
with Cross Stitching
CTCT-20171221_131903
 
This is a fun background stitch on canvases with lots of background.  It looks good as snow and sand.  Use different fibers in complimentary/varying colors to add texture and interest.
