I do crewel work but thought I would try cross stitch. Bought loads of cross stitch boooks and never took it up after all  |

I thought I should 'come out' and admit to being a cross stitch addict too ! I love to finish things quickly so have made lots of bookmarks. I have given quite a few to friends for Christmas as I thought they would make a nice gift. I have started a bigger project but I'm having problems with some of the joints in my hands so I have abstained and am now addicted to Su Doku !

I did cross stitch for several years before I started cardmaking. I loved it and will go back to it some time. I have several finished cross stitch pictures but they're all rolled up in a drawer because I never got round to framing them (apart from needing to re-mortgage to get them properly done!)
That ploughing one is gorgeous Loudmouth Schnook! |

Wow what a talented bunch you lot are!
Most I've managed in cross-stitch is a couple of bookmarks and one birth and one wedding sampler.
Edited cos I suddenly remembered I've still to finish the wedding sampler.  |
