Is it easier to needlepoint if you purchase a hand painted pattern. I've bought Dimension brands and other store brands and end up giving up since it is close to impossible to see the colors that I'm supposed to be needlepointing. Especially the small spots. I'd like to do one I wouldn't have to give up on. One I could See! Any advice? Daiva Just a quick question if I may. Is it easier to needlepoint if you purchase a hand painted pattern. I’ve

Glad to find out that it can also be used for needlepoint. Thanks for an informative blog entry. Pierrette =^..^= Janet,
