      Hi Debbie! From what I can tell it is a large weave of linen that is like stitching on Aida--you just stitch over one large linen thread. I bought mine at my local needlework shop (Craft Center of Fine Stitchery in Salt Lake City), but I noticed you can also buy it at 123stitch.com. Just go to their site and do a search for "linen aida".

    I fell in LOVE with a pattern, I cannot find it when I google it? It's by Cricklewood Crossing - This Crazy Life! I LOVE the saying!!! It's so true!!! I'd LOVE to stitch it! Is it only for people who attended the retreat? Do you know if it's available to the public? I even looked on Etsy and cannot find it? I thought they had a website, but I was taken to Etsy - unless I am missing the actual website itself? Would you know if it's available to a regular person like me who just would LOVE to have that on her wall? PLEASE DO let me know if you know!!! Thank you dearly!!! Now, BACK to your video a 2nd time! I'll also be clicking on your name to see if there are other videos you've made! I really like your style and how you talk in your videos to us! You are a delight! Thank YOU!!!
