Hey!!
Welcome from me, hope to see some pictures of your work soon! You certainly have your hands full with kids Glad you found something to do in your spare time to relax you!
Welcome to the forums! Despite knowing that whatever topic you want to talk about on the internet, there's a forum for it... it took me the longest time to even consider that there might be a cross stitching forum, so you're not alone!

welcome from Newcastle in Australia. I'm glad you still find time to stitch with a young family and another on the way. It's a good way of making yourself take time out for yourself.
Welcome from South Carolina. Sounds like you have more than enough going to keep you busy. I'm glad that you found us and hope you will find the time to keep coming back. What type of projects do you like to stitch?

Welcome from the dreich West! Don't be shy, now that you have found us: we love our newbies, truly we do. Sounds as if you have your hands full -- when do you have time to stitch!?
Aww thank you all for making me feel welcome. I love to stitch and enjoy a challenge. I've not long finished a mother and baby and am now currently stitching a sepia daddy holding up a baby by Vervaco. Its looking lovely and think they will both go well together. Not sure how to post pics on here. Once I work it out I will post a few projects I have done. I'm loving this forum already X
I'm sure there's a thread about putting images into threads. Usually the SAL space is used for this sort of thing. And once you have enough posts, you can set up your own gallery. In fact rootling around the galleries is an excellent way of seeing what folk are doing or past projects.
