Author Garden: Anybody cross stitch? barleychown AV Queen Member # 1392 posted                    I'm in the middle of an old fire engine...only about a million hours left until it's done! Anyone else? * * * * We do not see things as they are, we see things as we are. Plants: 6287 | From: S.

I find it much easier to do crewel work. I am interested in ribbon embroidery and other types of embroidery...but for some reason cross stitch is too difficult for me to follow. Anyone else have that problem? Barbara * * * * Plants: 458 | From: Pennsylvania, USA | Registered: Jan 2004  |  Seeded: 69.139.4.81
