Cross Stitching in general:
... have recently gained interest in a brand new hobby, which has even took me away from the many an hour I used to while away on here ? I have taken up cross stitching. This was a spur of the moment thing. I went for a day out at Pollok Country Park in Glasgow, and I was doing the obligatory browse through the gift shop, when I spotted a ?kit?, to be completed in half cross stitch, and showing a view of the city of...

Cross Stitching in general ... Millennium cross stitch kit lured me into cross stitch. My mom said she would buy the kit if I sewed it. When it arrived I could not believe it was simply a blank piece of Aida and that I had to count each stitch. I foolishly thought the design would be printed on. I was very close to sending it back, but I enjoy a challenge and became determined to suceed. Two years on it is still not quite finished as I have had breaks whilst doing Christmas, birthday and even engagement cards.

Cross Stitching in general ... started cross stitching as a child. My mother was always doing something creative, and i always wanted to help. I think, in the end, she got fed up with me always pinching her needles and threads. I was really pleased, when she bought me my own things. To get you started, you will need: *Aida, this is the material, that you stitch onto. It comes in 14 count, 18 count ect. The count determines how big the holes are. *Threads. These vary in cost, but i do recommend that you buy the more expensive ones. In the end your work will look a lot more pleasing. Plus the cheaper ones tend to knot. *Needles. You can buy these in a variety of sizes. Make sure your ne... Read the full review: Addicted to cross stich by georginaj |

Cross Stitching in general ... mean there are worse things to be addicted to aren't there? I mean I've written about others before (alcohol etc)! In this case it is a hobby which has become an addiction offering me fulfilment, enjoyment, relaxation and admiration - now you can't say that for many addictions! Still confused? I'm talking about cross-stitching - not just the reserve of bored housewives and grannies - I know of a few of us younger folk that love it. I first become entranced by this hobby about a year ago - stuck at home all day through illness and unable to pursue most of my prior daily activities I was at a loss with what to do with my spare time. I loved knitt... Read the full review: Cross addiction..but it could be worse! by Blurbubble |
