Nearly every month when my CrossStitcher comes through the door DH makes some quip about cross stitchers and happy stitchers.
I'm very much a happy stitcher - provided I am able to do some. I have been sewing, mainly cross stitch for over 20 years now and it is very much my way of relaxing. I actually do get stressed if I am prevented from doing so, I liken it to an addiction, I need to get my fix of stitches for the day!
I do flirt with knitting, patchwork and so on, but invariably come back to the cross stitching. I find it restful and therapeutic, when I'm not pushing myself to meet my (self-imposed) deadlines.
I like little better than to settle down with my sewing in front of the TV with something to (half) watch and get on with one of my latest projects, can't just have one on the go... you know what I mean?
