Hi, I'm new member Kama
I am new to the site, in fact it’s the first site I have ever joined a site.
I am here in Bonny Scotland, in a little village just off the east coast. I am nearly in the middle of the distance between Inverness and Aberdeen.
I have only been stitching for 15 years and love doing birth and wedding samplers.
The hardest project I have ever done was for a couple of work colleagues who had got married. I wanted to do something different for them. They both had the same tattoo that the tattoo artist had drawn up for them. I took a photo of the tattoo, converted it to a cross stitch pattern and proceeded to stitch. It was the hardest ever, but I loved every minute of it. I finished it off with the ladies names and the date of their wedding.
I would be grateful for help and advise when I need it, if you ladies and gents would assist me.

Between Aberdeen and Inverness? That means you get some sun, lucky you. Welcome to the forum from the Wet West!

Kama, welcome to the Forum from Western Ukraine and Kiev.
Serinde, thank you for having made me smile- for the first time today as it was that classical Monday not to mention the date. Your remark about the East of Scotland seeing some sun really sounded as a great joke. When in 2002 I was travelling from Edinburgh to Perth and then along the lochs to the West and down to Glasgow and Carlisle, the weather was either rain or drizzling, so I did not suspect there was the Sun somewhere there.

Sorry, posted it twice. Not to waste space, I will add that whatever the weather, Scotland is fantastically beautiful.

Welcome to the forum.
Sounds like an adventure, that tatoo/wedding sampler.
If you need help/advice, I reckon we'll be difficult to shut up!
All the best
Richard.

Hi all
Thank you for a great welcome.
I am trying to attach a couple photos for you to see but had real trouble.
I am using my iPad Pro and there is no option showing to attach images from my picture file.
Many thanks
