That's what I did too-cross-stitch, have so many pictures and gave away as gifts, had to get another hobby for awhile.

I love to cross stitch also, but haven't done it in a little while

Wow! Awesome! So much time and energy invested in these pieces of art!

Oh me too. I have so many angels and two of your Santas. Still do it sometimes, but my adiction has gone from counted cross stitch to quilting. Haven't gotten rid of my cross stitch stuff, still plan on doing more someday, if the eyes hold up.

OMG!! How beautiful they are. I have tried (unsuccessfully) to crossstitch you are sooo talented.

Beautiful I did a lot of cross stiching it was a time filler for bed side sitting. But quilting I enjoy more.

Show us pics. I 'm not familar with this method of afghans or at least I don't know it by this name.
