myladyyawo 0 Posted December 10, 2009 lol how long have you been cross stitching for? Is it fun? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xPink.Pixel.Princessx 0 Posted December 11, 2009 My mother used to teach me how to do it...I still remember...When i was like 4 (No jokes) I used to sit there and watch my grandma nitt....And when we where at home i watched my mother crochet instead of playing with my dolls like normal kiddies lol. At the age of 6...My mother sat me down on her knee and helped showed me what to do... I used to sit there every night before bed and do alittle crocheting. The first thing i made was a small blanket for my dolls pram. Iv still got it now.Since then...my mum taught me how to knitt, crochet, sow, Crosstitch and tappestry and many other different things like that.The one i entered took me about 1 week to do. Its quite hard as you have to make the design 1st before actually crosstitching it else it just goes all wong....if you miscount or leave make to many stitched...you ruin it all and have to take all the stitches back out and do it all over again....If you look carefully.... It took me longer as i have done shading on there...When you 1st try crosstitch..its best to do some simple designes before starting larger and more complicated ones =)I very rarly makemistakes now as i have been doing it for like...14years now (started at 6...im 20 now).It passes the time away but you have to be very patient... and its more fun at the end when you see the finished design. Ill post some of my largest work for you up on here if you wish...Some that have taken me like months to do...sometimes i just take random images from google...find the colours i need and just make it =)....If your patient...you should give it a go sometimes =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
myladyyawo 0 Posted December 11, 2009 Well I love to Crochet but I haven't really wanted to try to cross stitch as I really have no use for the finished product :S I crochet scarves and blankets and hats for my kiddos. I'm working on a big afghan for mine and my hubby's bed. It keeps me warm... although I started it last year and haven't worked on it in a long time lol better get back into it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xPink.Pixel.Princessx 0 Posted December 11, 2009 aww thanks... Just had a bad time with someone from there trying to say that its fake...Id prove it to her by showing the back as i said but v glued a piece of cardboard to the back to keep the stitching tight and tidy... I think shes just really jelous..even tho shes saying shes not...Shes trying everything to try and prove its fake...shes getting no whre cause its 100% real...as you can see with your own eyes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
