Hello from CNY

Post by ch112803 »

Hey everyone! My name is Chris and I'm from CNY. I've returning to a favorite hobby of mine after about 10 years of separation. I've been stitching since I was about 10 years old when my Mom taught my GS troop how. My troop of four still stitch by the way after 30 years. :)

Hope to be able to visit the forum often but I am a busy Mom of three and wife of an Englishman. LOL

Greetings from Colorado and welcome to the forum. I hope you'll share your stitching with us. It is hard sometimes to get in stitchy time with kids, but I hope you'll get "me" time now and then.

Thank you all!

CNY = Central New York so I'm between Rochester and Syracuse.

To those in the UK, I actually married a Brit from Kent and lived there for nearly four years outside of Tunbridge Wells. I really enjoyed my time there but once the kids arrived we moved to the States for family support.

I have really enjoyed picking up the hobby again. My biggest struggle is getting started. I don't have a real "spot" to get my projects out to sit and sew. I'm working on it though and as the family gets accustomed to seeing me stitch again it will likely work itself out.

Looking forward to getting to know you all.
Christina

Welcome from Kent...
Not the posh bit you were in, but the compost heap of the Garden of England, up on the north coast..

Anyway, have fun here, and enjoy the stitching.

Regards,

Richard.
