Video Tutorials and Guides

The video links provided below are to assist you in working techniques found in my patterns. The methods shown in the videos are my preferred way of working the technique. I believe however, that there is never a wrong way to do a technique. If you are happy with the results, then you are doing it right (although that method may not be the standard way of doing the technique).

All of my available tutorial videos can be found on my YouTube Channel, SmartCat Studios.
