Pirate Cat Stitch-a-Long

In 2010 I stitched Patt and Lee's Pirate Cat publicly on Blog to help folks who were new to canvas embellishment.   Below are the articles I posted for your reading pleasure.  The lessons cover appliqué and gluing Hot Fix crystals to a canvas as well as an explanation as to why I choose the stitches and threads I did.  Hopefully it will give you ideas and confidence to embellish your own painted canvas.
