Could you possibly add a quick link on the main blog page for the "In the beginning" entry?

I saw the work that Tricia Wilson Nguyen did featured in the latest Sampler and Antique Needlework Quarterly and am interested in doing some of the embroidery. Do we need to submit a test sampler to allow our work to be 'auditioned?' Can a fellow needleworker vouch for us? May I stitch just a little on the underarm if my tension isn't ferfect yet? *grin* Congratulations on undertaking such an ambitious project and thank you in advance for allowing the stitching community the opportunity to join in on the adventure. …how to volunteer to help with the stitching?

I look forward to seeing the completed jacket. Will the embroidery patterns be available to the public? I love the little bluebird in the "eye candy" picture.

What a fun idea: how to join the team of embroiderers working on the jacket. Can we really? That would be awesome. I will definitely look forward to that information - as well as your other updated.
