Cross stitch.....some new on silk and some not so new on cotton and silk. I love, love, love cross stitch.....in fact thinking about it, if there was a gun to my head I don't think I could choose between cross stitch and French Knots...love for a stitch...yep that's me. The simple things in life are the best.
My main reason for troubling you today though...not to dribble over cross stitch but to unleash you on my girls. The flickr group for the January embroider, embellish create class is looking amazing and I wanted to direct you over there to drool over the amazing work....and remember...week one isn't even over. For some it's only day two.......check it out here....

your girls are doing fabulously.
i too love the cross stitch. i think the pastels are my favorite.
Oh my goodness. Every one is beautiful and inspirational. I have been anxiously waiting for this.
What a great combination
What amazing work your girls are producing!
Always hated cross stitch but love French knot and daisy stitch. This is because I am NOT a precise person.
I've got cross stitch all round the house Karen but your white on white looks stunning.
You always work so neatly and precisely!
Speaking up from the back of the class, love the cross stitches, looking forward to Monday!

Stunning cross stitch Karen! Tell me - do you get it so even (on a non-evenweave fabric) by chance, or do you plan it out? I've always loved your cross stitch calligraphy.
I too love the cross stitch this piece looks fantastic, how to you embroider so fine straight rows Karen, thanks for visit and your sweet comments on my blog, looking forward to Monday's lesson.

Do you use some sort of scrim or whatever the technical term is for a cloth you use for a guide to do cross stitch and then you pull the threads away? Or do you get such regular stitching because well you're just brilliant at it?
I don't really like xstitch, but you make it look so beautiful, that is some feat! WOW
Cross-stitch in soft colours! Love it!
Pure bliss - I do love cross stitch so you can be sure there will be some on my cloth!
