Canvaswork Square #5 design by Arlene Cohen.

It’s the day before Thursday and Arlene and Gary gather to play a game of You Have to Choose. In the game we choose our preferences for needlework technique, thread type, color we like, color we don’t like, and offer two tips we share with anyone, anytime. We also get to hear about two of Gary’s childhood traumatic experiences. It’s a revealing show. Sunday is Sampler Sunday II and it’s a video show.–Gary
