Several things that i love about cross stitch

*I love the excited feeling you get when you first start a new piece.


*Watching a design come to life on the fabric


*The endless possibilities for a finished cross stitch


*Being able to alter the design to put a little more you in it


*The different colours and textures


*Finishing a design and knowing that every minute you've put into it was worth it!

Happy New Year Everyone, i hope that you all have a wonderful one filled with colour and excitement, also thank you so much for visting me through out the year you have all truely made it a happy one :D

Girl, I totally agree with you. I love quilting for the same reasons. Especially the part about changing it to put a little of yourself into it. :)

Happy Halloween

Hi guys, Happy Halloween to you all :D Little miss had a very fun day dressed as a kitty all day. then her grandad and auntie took her trick or treating for hour while mummy handed out sweeties to other little 'monsters'. I love Halloween just because you have an excuse to dress your little humans up all cute or scary for the fun of it. I have no doubt that this wont be the one and olny time my daughter wears this dress as she had fun pretending to be a cat and wiggle her tail all day. Hope you all had fun too Till next time Take Care SJ

One Last Time...

... i know i've posted countless pics of tatty but i swear this is his last vist to my blog, i just thought that seen as you have all seen him grow from crosses to a teddy bear you should also get to see him completely finished as a christmas present. It took an awfully long time to get the border straight and neat but after a few tries i managed i,ve used two different fabrics, underneath is soild red marble and the top is red silk net with gold stars. Then came the ribbon that i stitched around the outside now that was the real pain but was totally worth it when i saw my mums face on christmas day. sammyjo
