Fun and easy
I recently retired and decided to start cross-stitching again after almost 20 years. I wanted a fun but easy pattern to get back into the groove. This was perfect. It is now finished and hanging in my new retirement home. And I have moved on to a new more challenging pattern.

Cute pattern. Welcome back to cross stitching after all those years. I have been doing it for 30 years and it is amazing how the patterns have advanced from the simple stuff of 30 years ago. I always have 2 or 3 projects going at one time. One of my present projects is a 100,000 stiches picture of John Wayne for my son.

Welcome to the chat room. Come back often and chat with all the stitchers.

Good job! I like the picture! Welcome back to a fun relaxing hobby. I too put my cross stitch away for quite a few years. Came back to it and love it even more.

Welcome! I'm also retired . It's nice to NOT be on a set schedule of having to RUN to work, RUN home, RUN, RUN, RUN....

I hope you come back often for this chit chat blog. Many are experienced stitchers who help the rest of us with our cross stitching questions and disasters.
PS Sometimes it gets wild!
