Ehrman Tapestry

Yet another craft I've long been wanting to try..needlepoint and embroidered pillows. I've had the Ehrman Tapestry magazine sitting and mocking me for the last year as I try to decide whether or not to give it a go. Of course, I would like to get to the point where I could just make my own patterns, but I always feel like I have to do a few patterns first to get the hang of things. Have any of you attempted needle-pointing? Is it as hard as it looks??

Needlepoint. easy stuff. early form of digital imaging (how cool is that). kits are nice because they have the right yarn and you won't have to buy all that.
tip: start with a small sized project (a 4" square or something like that)
