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

I agree with all of that - I've had some hibernating for a while I must pull out!
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. :)

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
