My own private stitching tutor!

[Sharila]

Just wanted to tell you that from yesterday, till tomorrow, I am having my own private, free stitch tutor, my mum!

She came to visit me for a few days and she has given me helpful tips, practical help, and learned me stitches like satinstitch, contourstitch and chainstitch.

She tried to learn me french knots , but failed. Or it was rather me who failed.

She doesnt embroider anymore, only knit, but she sure knows her stuff!

That's great.

[wolfmom]

That is great, my mum can't even sew a button on

Thats the best tutor of the lot. Enjoy it all and you will get the hang of the french knots - one day.

My mom was the one who got me started on cross stitch many many years ago. She was a very talented woman and could do almost any type of needlework. She always had so many projects going at once!
