Petit point, why did I wait so long to try you? You are only needlepoint on a small scale. You are half a cross stitch, so you are twice as fast. You are lovely.

Tea Time petit point (WIP)
Unfortunately, you are also tricksy. Before I started filling in the background, you were even and lovely. Now you slant. Not much (yet), but I see you leaning.
Well, no worries. I’ll whip you into shape when I finish you. Maybe a magnet would be a good idea. I’ll lace you tightly to some card stock, and that will take care of your unsightly slant.
Now, to look for another petit point project…
