Post by swiftcrafter »

hi eveyone! my name is lindsey and i am a full-time mum to 7 kids
i live in a small market town in lincolnshire (uk)
i started cross stitching as a teenager but haven't done any recently as i sold all my stuff a fews years back because i couldn't seem to find any time to stitch
up until a few weeks ago that is when the bug seemed to bite me again...lol
now i have got projects coming out of my ears and my kids are thinking up new things for me to stitch quicker than i can stitch them......lol
i hope to get to know you all soon

:wave: Hi Lindsey. Welcome to the forum from South Carolina. I'm amazed that you have time to stitch with 7 children to look after. Though I knew a woman years ago who had 6 under the age of 10 and managed to find time to stitch, so I imagine that when the bug bites you have to respond. I hope to get to know you soon also. Are there any types of projects that you like doing best, besides the ones that your kids are coming up with? I hope you will post pictures for us. We love seeing pictures.

Hi Lindsey and Welcome :wave:

You sure have your hands full and I am sure that they are busy planning your stitching calendar for years ahead. At least you will never be short of something to stitch.

Welcome to the forum. :) Sounds like you've got quite the clan there. Hope you manage to fit in plenty of stitching time to keep up with your kids ideas.

Wow Lindsey, you are one lucky woman! I am involuntary childless, and even if 7 kids sounds like a bit over the top, I would rather have 7 kids than zero. One of my friends has 4 kids, 2 dogs, 2 rabbits and an aquarium. Thats my idea of happiness!
