>Mounting Beadwork to Canvas

>

This weekend, I'll be stitching my beaded White House & trees to its painted 36" wide oval stretched canvas.

I have already begun this stage of the piece, and it's not exactly easy mostly because of the size of the canvas. I work with the painting half on and half off of my kitchen worktable. I have already stitched the White House to the canvas, and one of my needles broke off inside the center section of the beadwork. I am trying not to break a second needle. I am also trying not to catch any thread on the beads, so I am working slowly stitching one tree leaf at a time.

You can see some of the stitches on the back of my canvas here:

I have already completed quite a bit, but I still have another tree and my little beaded dog to stitch into place! :o What will you be working on this weekend?
