    Well, we certainly are a group of talented people! What a variety of things we have accomplished.

    I think cross stitch is a great name for it as it makes me very cross :/ I have 3 I'm yet to finish :( Yours are beautiful Sue but agree with sewnmom it's too slow, I tried hand quilting but I'm back on the machine..I can knit but apparently do it backwards so I gave it up :)

    I've tried a lot of different crafts, too, including cross stitch, sewing, making gift baskets with "stiffy" ribbons (boy, that was a long time ago),macrame (even longer ago).

    As of this year, I still enjoy crocheting, but need to expand my stitch knowledge, sewing, quilting and punchneedle, which I find a tad boring.

    Hubs and I have been busy the last 5 weeks constructing an apartment out of part of one of our garages for our Special daughter, so all I have energy for is reading this site and making a clothesline rug for her apartment.

    I love all the questions ya'll come up with!

    lets see, today I worked on Christmas gifts. I am mostly done with a purse, Finished up some cross stitch pictures to be framed, and started to crochet a piano scarf. and cut out some aprons. I like to keep from getting bored by doing one thing at a time.

    Thank you so much, but they are way beyond my abilities.
