Darlene, your rocks are pretty! I don't have the talent to paint. I have been doing some small quilting projects.

Jessica, I bought me a kids learning cross stitch a couple of weeks ago. Still haven’t opened it yet. Trying to catch up on a couple more projects first.

I have been doing some little cross stitch projects for fun and just finished up this little pillow.
Anyone else love Americana decor stuff?

Love that Australian fabric! Learning to sew triangles is important. There are papers that make it easy but I like to just cut 2 squares #8542;" larger than I want my finished triangle to be, draw a diagonal line on the back, and sew ¼" on each side of the line. Cut on the line and you have 2 triangles.

I like that arrangement of triangles. I'll have to try it with my next swap quilt.

Thank you Grace. I used my sizzix to cut them out. What I cut with my sizzix seems to sew up so easy. Ruthie Ann

Winnie that pillow is WONDERFUL!! I'm stitching today to finish up a pillowcase to start more hand stitching. Mom has kept me well supplied with handwork, thankfully. I have tea towels and pillowcases to work on. I have a throw pillow in planning but not sure if I want to stitch or vinyl it.

I've been making progress today on a dragonfly cross-stitch pattern that I plan to frame and give to a friend who loves dragonflies. The fibers called for are silk, and this is my first time stitching with silk. So far, I like it better than cotton - it goes so smoothly through the fabric. Do other cross-stitchers here prefer cotton or silk?

Sue, that's going to be beautiful when you finish. Haven't done cross stitching for a while because of lousy vision. I have purchased some magnification that helps. Keep up the good work.

Thanks, Betty! So far my regular reading glasses are strong enough. Hope that lasts awhile!
