Annie thank you for such an informative answer. I do carry my embroidery everywhere and have worked on presentation but after reading your post will work it on it even more. Thanks for all the info!
Profile Information
- What aspect of textiles are you interested in?
- Hand Embroidery, Crochet & Knitting. I love the meditation of the stitches. To find like minded individuals who enjoy the same things I enjoy who feel the same way when they stitch.
- Where did you learn your textle skills?
- My grandmother taught me all of the needlearts when I was about 6. When other people would buy dolls I would buy pillowcases and yarn.
- Anything else you want to say to introduce yourself to the group??
- I live with my husband and son in Upstate NY with a darling little dog and I spend too much time on the computer instead of being in the zone with my stitchery. I am also trying to make a living with my needlearts but finding it not so easy.
