Loved this craft! You need to have more punch needle classes with this instructor! I would love to see a round cushion for the bottom of a chair or rocking chair. I love how the instructor allows you to create your own design, and walks you through each step. Also the tips and tricks of how to choose the colours for your design, thread the punch needle, how to hold the needle, and rotate it while in the cloth, and gliding it along the cloth, making corrections with the yarn on the monk cloth, creating texture by punching from the other side of the monk cloth, and even threading a tapestry needle to create a binding. Thank you.
