Looks fantastic Kerry (but I think you're crazy for doing it all in metallics!)

About that...Penelope's stiffness or something. It depends. Sometimes it is stiff at first, but later it may become so easy to handle, that one must pull tight with one hand while stitching with the other. Other canvases again, I think the one with smaller mesh, like 3-4...they keep the stiffness part rather nicely from A to Z.

Kerry, it's looking great! Metallics can be quite a headache..but they sure do add some jazz to a design :wub:
