Hello,

I have been cross stitching for quite awhile, but am fairly slow. I also start projects, then put them down, and later start new ones. This year, i am going to work hard at finishing all the projects I have started (my new year's resolution). I have mostly stitched from Dimensions kits. I love the shading and depth that they provide.

Another one of my goals is to cross stitch something special for everyone in my family. For the most part, I have the kits/patterns picked out. Unfortunately, once I get done with a project, i sort of feel reluctant to give it away!

I have some questions and I am looking to perhaps branch out of Dimensions kits and would love to hear opinions. Thank you for your forum!

Hello and welcome :wave: I think most of us are guilty of starting lots of new projects and not finishing them. Good luck with your resolution :D I look forward to seeing some of them :)

Welcome! I love stitching Dimension kits, I started out with them and still go back every so often. :) They're just so detailed. They can be pretty complex too! If you're comfortable stitching Dimensions you should be right to tackle anything.

What kinds of scenes do you like stitching? Animals, landscapes, people?

Hello and welcome from Michigan. :wave:

I just started myself. I taught myself from this site and YouTube. This site is amazing and everyone is so helpful. :whoop:

I fell in love with Mystic Stitch and Heaven and Earth Designs because they are all a simple stitch "x". However, they are really big and take a bit of time but very beautiful. Also others here have told me that Kustom Krafts and Artecy Cross Stitch are also simple stitch all "x". I get Mystic Stitch from Everything Cross Stitch. Mystic Stitch does have its own site as well. I have included some links for you. I hope they work.

Best wishes
