Stitching Lessons

My name is Jennifer Beam. I am an experienced stitcher with over 30 years experience working with patterns. I started out on plastic canvas as a child, moved up to stamped cross stitch patterns, then counted cross stitch which I’m sort of stuck at. I like really complicated patterns, but also enjoy making some of the less complicated. I thought I would make some tutorials about stitching for you and place them here. I hope these help you become a better stitcher. If you have an questions or ideas that you would like talked to, send me a message on my contact form.

Here are the tutorials that I made. I hope you enjoy them and learn something new.
