Hello from sunny Whitley Bay

Post by allyp »

Hi
New to this forum but not to cross stitiching. Have cross stitched for over 20 years off and on and have recently got back into after a number of years of doing other things-cardmaking and decoupage.

Thank you for all the welcome's. I will attach some photos of my recent work soon (once i have worked out how to do it!!!). I am currently working on a christmas cross stitch for my friend.it was one of my bargains from my fav online shop http://www.thehappycross-stitcher.com" target="_blank I think i paid £3.99 for the kit so couldn't resist buying it. The last picture i made for myself was the three labrador puppies chewing a walking boot. It took a little while to do but worthwhile :D
