Cross Stitching

StarlightSerenity · 12-26-2011, 04:25 PM

Anyone here cross stitch? I've just started a new project, it's taking me a while to get back into the swing of things again as I haven't done any for about a year (and figure out how to hold a massive frame!) but I'm enjoying it

This is what I've done so far, it is white, the lighting has made it look orange -

(sorry if it's still big, Photobucket can take a while to resize stuff sometimes)

It's a Tatty Teddy design called "With Love" and this is what it will hopefully look like when I've finished it -

I cross stitch but all my old work is at my parents. I did start a westie about 4 months ago but I put it away as work took over. I shall take a picture when I dig it out

Ooo do post a pic Gemina

I don't know about relaxing... I tend to swear a lot while stitching! I love me to you stuff

I picked it up for a few quid at a craft market last year (was reduced right down so I couldnt resist).

my mum is a HUGE cross stitcher

she does these massive ones there really nice

I can't do it (I'm not very good at all these crafty things

) I'll try and post piccies of some of mums stuff if you like

Definately post some pics emily

I've not done any big projects (this is the biggest actually) but then most of my crafty things are smaller pieces.

If it takes too long I get bored and forget about it :/
