Crossstitchforum - A FREE forum for Cross Stitchers

Welcome from Georgia.

Hi

After a 10+ year break from cross stitching I have decided to start stitching again. I got excited finding and sorting through my DMC floss. Hoping it's not hard to find floss in stores? Looking forward to seeing and hearing about others projects.
