A Week-End A Paris by Cross Stitch

January 15th, 2009 | Categories: Crafting | 9 Comments

Well, I was all set to post my photos for Vegetarian Option‘s Every Hour on the Hour, but it seems WordPress decided against that. So, here is my plan B for today!

A Week-End A Paris

I started cross stitching in July 2008. I’ve always been into crafts like sewing and knitting, and I decided that cross stitching would be fun to learn. I started out small, with little projects so I could get the hang of the whole thing, and I found that I really liked cross stitching, even more than I liked knitting! I decided to branch out with a “bigger” project in November 2008, and I slowly worked away on it during my winter break. And ta-da! It’s finished, and is just waiting to be framed. I’m so proud of it!

    This looks so gorgeous! You definitely should be proud about it, it’s stunning. @_@ I absolutely fail at knitting, sewing, and anything similar to these, so I’m pretty sure that cross-stitching would be way too hard for me. :)
