Hello from Iowa!

Post by LydiaZ »

Hi! I am lydia from Des Moines, Iowa. I have recently gotten back into cross stitch after a long break. I learned as a child from my mother. I remember making small projects and decorating my room with them. I am excited to jump in and get stitching!

Welcome from the West of Scotland! :wave: If Iowa is as frigid as everywhere else in the US seems to be, staying in and stitching is a Good Call! :P

Hello from Colorado. What kinds of projects and designs do you like? I hope you'll share pictures with us. If you've browsed the forum much, you'll see how much we love pictures. :-)

Warm welcome

Post by LydiaZ »

Thanks for the warm welcome! I need it here in Iowa as the weather has been below zero for days now... I work in our schools and they have been canceled so I've gotten lots of stitching in as well as my other hobbies. As far as projects, I like landscapes and would love to do a large one for over my fireplace. Maybe something with trees, trails, water...any suggestions?
I was so excited to start in this forum that I forgot to tell about my wonderful family. I have two teenagers and a fantastic husband. We also have a lazy kitty. Thanks again for making me feel welcome!

Hello from a little further North on I-35

Always nice to add a few more midwesterners to the group.
