I have not done much cross stitch recently but I did some last summer when I was with my mom. She is making cross stitch and regular embroidery blocks by hand for a quilt she is making. We had about 10 finished and I think she needed 30 or so. She may have finished the blocks this winter but I have forgotten to ask her what stage she is in. This question has reminded me that I should ask her about it. I was thinking about doing a quilt with machine cross stitched blocks but have not started yet.

I love cross stitch designs - I still do it by hand! I haven't tried out any of the CuteCrossStitch ones yet as they haven't particularly appealed to me.

I have done lots of cross stitch by hand in the past and now also have done some on the machine. Amazing to watch as you know how much time and work this is by hand. I have made some free ones form Ellen Maurer Stroh and LOVE them. so give it a try!
they stitch out amazing!

I have not used any yet but I had a plan to make a smock type blouse and I will be adding some type of Xstitch to give it that UNIQUE look...I will post it when I do ;D *2U

I love cross stitch. I have used them on T shirts, sweatshirths bags, you name it. They are no more difficult than any other design.

I am an avid collector and have got lots of X-stitch I did a beautiful machine x-stitch on hessian for Christmas last year. The one and only I have ever done. It is pretty tho. Give it a bash :)

I have collected a few but have not had time or thought of something I want to try to put it on or for who. As I am fairly new to mach. emb. it will take time to try everything.
