I'm cross stitching, Therefore I am...

Post by Pirouette »

Through my embroideries which will be found, one day,... in 300, 400 years in the bottom of a attic !!!

I'm 49 y.o. and I live in France, I have 2 sons (not cross stitcher :cry: )...
I'm of Polish origin with a name more Ukrainian...

I like the culture of the Eastern European countries, maybe the call of my ancestors.

And so many things I show you on my site... hope you will appréciate.

Welcome from the West of Scotland. Halima's Day is very cute (which belies the hard work illustrated... I wouldn't want her day, if you see what I mean!). But the Russian alphabets are simply beautiful. So good you could market them as kits, I'm sure!

Welcome from me too! I'm English but I live in SW France just north of Toulouse.
Fantastic stitching! I love the wrist warmers, much more practical than fingerless gloves. And the Alphabet is just stunning! :applesauce: :applesauce:
look forward to seeing you here often. :D

Hello Pirouette, and welcome to the forum! Your Russian alphabets are beautiful, so detailed and elegant, and I love the small motifs you're using to decorate them. Your other work shows just how effective cross stitch in one colour can be -- an inspiration!
