Double-crossed? Cross-breed? No, it's... cross stitch!

Mostly for tersa, but anyone who is interested can check the links out.

While looking for 10+ year old fandom stuff for tiranog, I came across some of my old crafts. This was the last cross stitch project I was working on before I gave up on the whole medium. Apparently I was almost done, I just had the border left to do.

I'm tempted to take the hobby up again, and I have a number of kits I haven't even started yet. Maybe, maybe.

That's very pretty! Whenever I think "cross-stitch" I always get the mental image of some pioneer girl's "sampler" with the ubiquitous didactic bible verse prominently featured. This is much nicer. :)

Why'd you give it up?

*chuckles*

Why'd you give it up?

Because it was really hard on my hands/wrists/arms, and at the time I was also on the net nearly 24/7, so I had to pick between that and typing. Typing was the easy winner. :)

It *is* very pretty. And 'netting isn't very conducive to cross-stitching, I've realized. :) (It is, however, good for watching TV with)

However, if you want to do a movie some day at your place and craft, let me know. It's more companionable to craft *with* some one, and makes it go easier. :)

Thank you!

And if I get back to it, I will! Don't hold your breath though, as I'm finding it way too easier to just sit here and stare at the computer screen than actually have to *do* something. :P

Do nothing, turn brain off, try not to drool on myself. Mmm.
