Here I am, at the brink of a new experience. I'm going to try blogging about my favorite things...counted cross stitch, grandkids, cooking and life in general.
I began stitching in 1974 and have run the gamut of things. I've got so many finished projects that it's hard to believe I have stitched them all. I promise I will get pictures taken and posted in the very near future. It all started with a Pansy Pillow kit that I was bought at a small shop in Bennington, Vermont....sadly the shop is long gone. I was so excited to see those pansies grow as I stitched. I brought them with me on a vacation to Florida and shared them with my very crafty Aunt who took a look and said she could never do that. However, it wasn't long before she was stitching even more than I was....the benefit of being retired was on her side. I worked full time and had a spouse who did not like having my attention diverted to stitching....but I did keep on stitching and was fully supported by the women I worked with who were also stitchers (they taught me). Counted Cross Stitch is my passion and my stash has grown accordingly.
Welcome to the world of blogging. Looks good. Although for some reason this post doesn't show on my dashboard but your blog name does. I think it is blogger messing up. Looking forward to seeing pictures of your projects. Happy Stitching!!
