Hello from Washington State

Post by GracewoodStitches »

Hello, I've cross stitched for many years but am always looking to learn from other stitchers :)

A few years ago I couldn't find the type of designs I was interested in stitching - while I love samplers and band patterns I also wanted to expand into something with more art deco, art nouveau, geometric but still with a vintage feel to them. So I bought my first software and began learning how to use it and then began developing my ideas for new designs.

This has been a lot of fun and I hope to never stop expanding my knowledge of fabrics, threads and just the joy of cross stitch.

Happy to have found the forum, I look forward to seeing what everyone is doing and sharing my experiences as well.
