Wow. The last few weeks have been a little crazy for sure! I went to TNNA (more on that later this week), taught at the lovely
String Attached Yarns in Dayton, Ohio, and had my next book due to the publisher.
I'm happy to be home and without a big deadline looming, so I decided to give something new a try - cross stitch!
I visited
Red Gate Stitchery's booth while at TNNA. When I got home, I immediately ordered a little DIY necklace kit to try.
The kit comes with everything you need, including the embroidery floss and needle!
Yesterday I took a little time to work on it.
An hour or so later and I was done. I love that it looks like knitting stitches!
I've already ordered another one. I love interesting jewelry and this definitely fits the bill. I'm looking forward to trying more cross stitch!
If you cross stitch, I'd love to hear from you - where do you get your patterns, supplies, etc? I think a new hobby is forming over here. :)
