[Busy_B]

Hello everyone! I'm Barb from Indiana. I found this forum while I was just fooling around on the internet the other day and was really interested. I'm a 30 year old stay-at-home mom of a 2 year-old-daughter and 5 year-old son. I have a degree in mathematics education, and I taught 3 levels of math at a local high school before becoming a mom.

I am not new to cross stitching. I have been doing it for at least 20 years off and on. I really got more involved in high school and college, and I always have a project or two going. I do all sizes. I've done one Thomas Kinkade with plans to do more. After reading the forum yesterday, I went to the HAED site and was amazed! I would love to do a couple of the Christmas and landscape ones! I'll try to post a pic of what I've been working on for a couple of months soon. (I might go a few days to a week with no time to work on my projects.)

Welcome to the forum.
I'm a stay at home Mum of 2 as well. Mine are 15 and 8 years old and I home school them.

I look forward to seeing some of your projects when you can, it's great looking at the projects each of us are stitching. Not only can we all encourage each other, but it gives us idea's of charts to try that maybe we wouldn't even have thought about. Plus we pick up masses of tips on here as well.
Enjoy the site.

Hello Barb and welcome

I tend towards smaller projects and would never contemplate an HAED as I like to have the odd finish or two

Hope to see pics of your current (and past) projects soon, meanwhile do join in the fun.
