Hi All, I am still here lurking in the background. At the moment my machines are having a rest and I am doing a Cross stitch (by Hand). It is so slow and I keep thinking that I wish I could do this by machine. Will have to wake up my machines soon as I am running out of stock for my Markets. Always looking for new projects to do and amazed at what all of you cuties achieve.

If I keep going at the moment , will not get any machine work done. Cross stitch is so slow. Might be a UFO.

How long do you have? It is going to take me ages. I will be back to my machine before I finish the X Stitch.

It's nice of you to pop in.You make some pretty special items for us to drool over also. I use to do counted cross-stitch...found I was 'counting' challenged. :~(((( However I learned some very creative ways to disguise my whoops. :)

It is slow. I keep thinking I should be doing so and so. Guess this is why I have so many UFO's

Good to see your post here Lyn. I too do a lot of "lurking" here, sticking my head up occasionally. I had my machine serviced lately and am hankering to get back into some machine embroidery. Would you believe it had been 5 years since the last service, it was well overdue and the stitching was very bad, it needed a new bobbin case. Hugs Marg

I find it hard to find someone close to service my machines. My problem now is that I should be outside in the garden after the Cold Winter we have had in SA.

It's good to see you. I do hand embroidery at night. I'm still addicted to it and have lots of kits left to do. And floss to use up. I've taken up to 5 years to complete a large hand embroidered project. They get done eventually. I do hope you get back to machine stitching though. Gotta keep up with your stock for those markets.
