Hi Terry -- I don't think there will be a problem getting the needle
through -- for one thing, the squares don't go through most the holes, and
some of the corners have 4 stitches in one hole already, and the fit wasn't
that tight.
My only concern is finding the right hole through the yarn of the square if
I'm not on a border of a square.

How would you get your stitches through the canvis, with the other stitches
there?

Hi Terry P --
I like the letters&numbers descriptions better than the 2-number approach.
This could mirror excel, or even a game of battleship -- lol -- think of
aiming at coordinates and firing ...*snicker*
I also have another request: Are there patterns or algorithms for
incorporating print characters in the needlepoint? I was thinking that for
my current project, in which I am trying to put 6 letters on the side of a
tissue box cover, that I will just cover the entire box as if there were no
characters, and then embroider the letters on top -- this would make them
tactile, and give it depth for those who can see it.
Terry P: do you have any tips or suggestions on doing this? I was just going
to take a stab at doing it myself, but if you have any wisdom on the
subject, I'd like to hear it first.
THX

I am trying to gather peoples wishes to plan what to teach. That is why I
suggested a plad or horizontal stripe to start with, for Terry, even though
she wants squares with deviding lines. That is a lot more complex. You
have to put the lines in first. Also do people like the idea of describing
with letters and numbers;
Upper left block would be A1.
Let me know your thoughts.
What would be a good time. Not the beginning of March.
Terry P.

How about doing a plastic canvas class?
