Italian Becomes A Tree Ornament
It appears that most of the rctn participants are cross-stitchers. A
few years ago, the discussions appeared to be more diverse. Can anyone
point me to other groups that address a wider range of stitching
techniques? |

-I think there are some people like myself that may
talk about cross stitch a lot but actually do plenty of other things. I
crochet ( my greatest skill I've made tablecloths, several bedspreads,
countless dollies, filet crochet pictures, rugs, Christmas ornaments and God
knows what else) But I don't do clothes. Someday.
I Cross Stitch but still do not have anything up on my walls
I am much too cheap when it comes to professional framing, though one of these days.
I'll break down and have a half dozen done projects framed professionally. I do
Needlepoint but kits don't agree with me much, so I rarely finish anything.
Leon thinks its the Word: KIT - I like working from scratch. I have
finished several needlepoint Christmas ornaments and plan to make them up
this summer. I do a great deal of beadwork... I'm actually pretty good at
it, I use to do it back in the '60s and '70's but could not find the beads
for a long time (very innocent or stupid, why didn't I ever think of
catalogs back in then ?) I picked beading back up when bead stores opened
here in the Northwest. And I make necklaces of varying complexity and other
projects, I know how to bead on a loom (taught myself back in the '70s) and
I do know how to do off the loom bead work, but still have not done a
project, I am waiting this year to invest in the Delica beads because Leon's
job is very uncertain. . I do work with polymer Clay but I am so new at this
craft I don't even like to mention it. |
