Cross Stitch Projects, Supplies, Fabric & Floss
Welcome to EverythingCrossStitch.com!

I’m not sure how often it will be. But I wanted to come on and say hello. The short version is the last nine months have not been easy. My health has not been great. Certainly not life threatening but having to make adjustment’s, from someone who has always been very active it has been difficult. Plus I just needed to take a mental break from any social media to get my health sorted out and get my head around it all. Up until a couple of months ago I didn’t think I would be able to stitch anything again. But for now I’m in a pretty good place and am slowly coming back as long as I don’t over exert myself. I did post a couple of photos in the first of the month WIP page. Trust not very exciting they are old WIPS. But WIPS nonetheless that have had a little work. I really hope everyone is doing well and that you all have a happy day. 🥰💕

Good morning everyone this fine Wednesday morning. The beautiful weather is holding and it's been great being able to stitch outdoors. It makes those long areas of black go a lot easier! I am calling today all is well Wednesday! Have a fabulous day.

Today is Wednesday ………………………………………. Good Mornimg, MJ 💕

Mellie, Who designed the sampler and is it a kit? Thanks, Irene

Do you sell any vintage cross stitch pattern KITS? I don't want to buy just the patterns. Thank you

My cousin cousin posted this on her FB page after losing her sister…great advice. If I get dementia, I’d like my family to hang this wish list up on the wall where I live. I want them to remember these things. 1. Every time you enter the room announce yourself. “Hi dad - it’s ………...” Please don't ask- Do you know who I am??? That just causes me anxiety. 2. If I get dementia, I want my friends and family to embrace my reality. 🌸 3. If I think my spouse is still alive, or if I think we’re visiting my parents for dinner, let me believe those things. I’ll be much happier for it.❤️ 4. If I get dementia, don’t argue with me about what is true for me versus what is true for you.👍🏽❤️👍🏽 5. If I get dementia, and I am not sure who you are, do not take it personally. My timeline is confusing to me.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 6. If I get dementia, and can no longer use utensils, do not start feeding me. Instead, switch me to a finger-food diet, and see if I can still feed myself.❤️🥰❤️🥰 7. If I get dementia, and I am sad or anxious, hold my hand and listen. Do not tell me that my feelings are unfounded. 8. If I get dementia, I don’t want to be treated like a child. Talk to me like the adult that I am. ❤️ 9. If I get dementia, I still want to enjoy the things that I’ve always enjoyed. Help me find a way to exercise, read, and visit with friends. ❤️ 10. If I get dementia, ask me to tell you a story from my past. 11. If I get dementia, and I become agitated, take the time to figure out what is bothering me. ❤️ 12. If I get dementia, treat me the way that you would want to be treated. ❤️ 13. If I get dementia, make sure that there are plenty of snacks for me in the house, especially popcorn. Even now if I don’t eat I get angry, and if I have dementia, I may have trouble explaining what I need.❤️ 14. If I get dementia, don’t talk about me as if I’m not in the room.👍🏽 15. If I get dementia, don’t feel guilty if you cannot care for me 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It’s not your fault, and you’ve done your best. Find someone who can help you, or choose a great new place for me to live.👍🏽 16. If I get dementia, and I live in a dementia care community, please visit me often.❤️ 17. If I get dementia, don’t act frustrated if I mix up names, events, or places. Take a deep breath. It’s not my fault.👍🏽 18. If I get dementia, make sure I always have my favorite music playing within earshot.❤️❤️❤️ 19. If I get dementia, and I like to pick up items and carry them around, help me return those items to their original place.👍🏽 20. If I get dementia, don’t exclude me from parties and family gatherings.❤️ 21. If I get dementia, know that I still like receiving hugs or handshakes.❤️🥰❤️ 22. If I get dementia, remember that I am still the person you know and love.”🌼❤️ Someone once said if you take care of someone with dementia you lose them more and more everyday. When they get the diagnosis, when they go through different stages, when they need treatment and when they pass away. This is called "the longest goodbye ". As the brain slowly dies, they change physically and eventually forget who their loved ones are. They could end up lying in bed, not moving and not eating or drinking. There will be people who will scroll past this post because Dementia has not touched them. They may not know what it's like to have a loved one who has battled or is still battling dementia. To raise awareness of this cruel disease, I would like my friends to put this on their page today. Hold your finger on the post to copy and paste to your timeline. A special thank you to anyone willing to put this on their timeline for Dementia Awareness Week. 💔 This post has very special meaning to me.

Today is Tuesday ……………………………………………… Good Morning, MJ 💕
