Hi I'm new to this forum
The name is Donna and I'm a mom to 2 great kids a daughter 16 and a son 11. I was widowed in 2014 and have just got myself back into stitching.
I have quite a reasonable stash but prefer to work on one project from start to end at one time. Although I'm guilty of having a couple of ufo's.
At the minute I'm doing a large stamped crossstitch piece that I purchased whilst in China.
I also love card making and have more stash there. I'm also slowly redecorating the house and sorting through trying to make life a little more pleasant.

Looking forward to getting to know a few of you and getting some projects done in 2017

Take care

Donna

Hello Donna, and welcome to the forum from South Carolina! And welcome back to stitching! A great way to add to your redecorating efforts also. Lots to see here and that may give you some ideas. We also have some amazing card makers, especially around the Christmas holidays! Looking forward to seeing your projects and looking forward to getting to know you!

Hi Donna and Welcome from me too, in lovely cool Brisbane. So glad you have found us and found stitching again, it does help to keep the mind occupied and hands busy. Good luck with all the sorting out and re-working your home - these things all take time.
