Another Newbie!
Hi everyone, I'm Polly. Am new on here I have been looking at the boards for a while and everyone seems really friendly so I decided to take the plunge! I'm 35, a teacher, and live between Manchester and Liverpool wih my husband and kids (12 and 13). I have been stitching since a fateful day about 16 years ago when, home from uni and bored, my mum asked me to finish a border off for her and then I was hooked!! Have stitched various things including Lavender and Lace, Just Nan, Shepherds Bush etc but would by no means say I was experienced or expert - I just plod on in my own way!! Am currently doing An Open Heart by Drawn Thread and have in fact just done the drawn thread bit - it took me about two days to pluck up the courage to take scissors to my stitching it's the first time I have done that kind of thing unsupervised! Am also doing the DMC Chrysanthemum and allium - I like to have a few things on the go. Am looking forward to chating with you all.

Welcome to the group, glad you found us. I am working on a bellpull which I have frog some of it tonite, I just can't figure out what the mistake is, I know where but just can't seem to see it. You should post some of your stuff to the gallery, we love to see what everyone is stitching. Happy to see new "faces", enjoy your visits.

Thanks everyone for your warm welcomes, I am really looking forward to chatting with everyone, like some other people I don't have many people aound who understand the stitching bug - my mum does but she lives 2 hours drive away and none of my friends locally stitch so I am a solitary stitcher! Hope you are all enjoying the great weather - well in the uk anyway!
