Time for the monthly question:
What online stitching communities do you enjoy?
Because I really am not a big internet person I limit the places I go for just about everything. 10 years ago I found a fun little stitching forum. At the time it was very new and small we had some great people and it felt like a family. about 4 years in it started to grow rapidly and needed a moderator and because I was one of the original members and I wanted the forum to survive I volunteered to do the job. It was great still small very little drama and still felt like family but then something hapened and the fun started to retreat. Maybe it was because of growth or because I was the one everyone made the complains to or maybe I got burned out. Finally after 10 years I had to take a break. I still love what the forum can give support, encouragement, advice and more but for me right now it is not my first place to go. http://www.crossstitchforum.com Right at this minute my places to go is Facebook. I am in 2 groups and for me that is enough. I enjoy the sharing but sometimes the drama is a bit ridiculous. And of course I really enjoy the Wipocalypse post and I will make trip to several of the blog from there if I have time during the month.
For the updates small bits on all of the WIP's and of course every little bit is a step in the right direction. Christmas Cottage (HAED) Poof by Ursula Michaels, Autum Ala Round by Glendon Place, Joy Joy Joy by Kelly Clark and Death By Cross Stitch by Long Dog Samplers
I had 2 finishes since last months post a small....Tea cup for sisters Birthday card and Beauty and the Beast
So that is my update hope to see alot of new starts and progress from all you ladies and gents.
If you have to give up stitching time for something, at least it's something as adorable as new puppy. Congratulations!!
ReplyDeleteThank you he is quite a handful!!!!!
DeleteDbcs in green and yellow is really cool, more interesting than just one color. Congrats on finishing Beauty, fabulous finish!
ReplyDeleteYou have the right idea of keeping it small. I follow so many people on blogger facebook and instagram that sometimes it feels overwhelming. I keep thinking i need to prune my feeds and then I don't end up doing it.
ReplyDeleteI love Christmas Cottage and Joy,Joy,Joy. I just love anything Christmas.Tea cup is adorable too and Poof intrigues me. I am looking forward to watching your progress.
