I've just joined the group, glad to have found an active cross stitch forum
I'm 39 years old, mother of two and live in Melbourne, Australia. I was an avid cross-stitcher in my teens and then I stopped and had a big break from it. I've just recently got back into it again and so glad I did, I didn't realise how much I missed it.
I've started a Kustom Krafts chart "Sofa Cat", it's quite a large design but I'm enjoying it so far. I am also interested in designing my own cross stitch patterns. Are there any other designers here?
Hi Catherine and welcome to the forum from South Carolina! We have quite a few members from Australia and are very glad to add another! We also have a growing number of designers among our numbers so you have definitely found the right place! I hope that you will post pictures of your project. We love pictures and I am very anxious to see your progress on Sofa Cat (any projects with a feline draws my immediate attention). Looking forward to getting to know you.

Hi Catherine and Welcome from a very warm Brisbane. So glad you joined us from beautiful Melbourne.
Where in Melbourne do you live. I spent my first 5 years of living in Aus down in Melbourne then came up here to my DD place. I was out in Mooroolbark nr Lilydale.

Hello & welcome from North Wales. I am a cat lover too & what you have stitched so far is really pretty. Look forward to next update on this as it will be lovely when completed
Yes, you can because they are yours. But obviously if you hope to sell them, don't use the design itself, just a photo of the finish or something similar. Best thread is "Trade or Sell". Good luck!
