Hi Harsha
Hows life in singapore??? I have 2 girls also, are your girls interested in cross stitch?? Mine are just beginning to experiment. My 6 year old has some knitting on the go as well, and also likes drawing, glueing, and making a mess like most kids do. My 13 year old, seems a little more preoccupied with friends (and boys), so her interest is very intermittent.
Im kinda glad to no longer be the newest member
Hope to get to know you more in time.

Hi Harsha
My two teenage boys aren't into needlework, and not particularly into their revision either (it's exam season here in the UK). I've never been to Singapore, although friends have and thought it was beautiful.
What sort of stitching is your favourite? Do you find sourcing materials easy? Is there a local variety of stitching? (Too many questions!)

Thank you girls!
Sue, my girls are 5 and 3. They have not started to show any interest yet. I plan to teach them anyway.. maybe in a few years.
Serinde,
I'm more into smallish or medium sized projects. Altho I must admit, I've been drooling over large projects for some time, maybe I'll take the plunge this year.
the good thing about smallish is.. up until now, I have no UFO. none at all. As for buying stitchy supplies, I rely on online shops most of the time. I'm always looking for more good and reliable online shop.

yes, you heard right, no UFOs!! can u believe that? and being the one into smallish design, I only have the most 2 work in progress LOL. it feels like something is nagging at the back og my mind, if I have more than 2 WIPs LOL.Serinde wrote:Harsha
No UFOs? NO UFOs? How is this possible? You just have to work harder at it, that's all.
Wot a lovely spot
Hello, I found u while looking @ sewing machines, so I am a nutter when it comes 2 Cross Stitch, I have a few UFO's, but am getting through them slowly, with other bits, like tapestry, patchwork, and embroidery. I am a busy one, but love it all. I just found a beautiful Cross Stitch of A Amish farm style one, and it will take me ages, but I guess it is the bees knees in cross stitch, it is is three parts, or framed seperately, not sure yet if I am going 2 do it as one or split it up in2 3's.
Happy stitching everyone and I am sure it will be nice 2 chat and all, I am in New Zealand, so we r having a realy one out of the box day in our summer, it is really hot, beach weather. So I am off 2 sit in it with a book 2day.
Cheerio now

Well, Miss Plum, rub it in! We in the Northern Hemisphere are some combination of cold, wet, icy, grey-skyed. However, the snowdrops are up and there are even some benighted crocus in one of my flowerbeds -- a touch early...
Keep us informed on how you get on with the Amish Farm.
If you want to know how to put in a picture, go up to the Welcome section, where Alex explains it.

Cozy Weather
Hello Serinde
So nice 2 hear u r just as cozy as we r weather wise, yes we r just thinking about putting our crocus plants in 4 their show off time in winter also. I can't wait 2 start 'Amid Amish Life' cross stitch, but how big 2 make it is the delima, may just do it in 3 parts. Thanks 4 the nice reply and the chat, enjoy the snowmen making, from one whom is so cozy in the sun with a lovely cool drink and a book.
