For several years, before discovering digital scrap, I did cross-stitch. Then, with the arrival of children, it became more complicated. And now my eyesight is declining... Love the colours and your title work. Thanks for sharing.

Oh I love this! The photo blend and how you’ve layered the hoop. Have fun with the new hobby!

Me too!

This is beautiful! I hope you enjoy your new hobby. I love how you scrapped this with the brown alpha by HJ is perfect here. Your stitched sampler is beautiful! I too did crewel embroidery, then I switched to Counted Cross Stitch and sometimes did ribbon embroidery. Like Gaelle @Gaelle, between my eye sight and my hands cramping, I haven't done it in MANY years but I still have all of my supplies so I should try it again. Your page is inspiring me to do so! Love this with the DMC floss, the hoop and the golden colors. Well done!

Your page is as beautiful as the DMC floss! Good for you for finding something that fits your lifestyle and may it soothes your soul during hectic travel and unsettling doctor visits!
