Hello Spencer
I used to do cross stitching but never tried embroidery and I just bought an embroidery class on Craftsy. I may not have enough creativity for embroidery (you know, for cross stitch, all I have to do is to follow the instruction and I can make it exactly the same as the sample) but I'm very interested.
Post your embroidery project photo!

Hi Spencer - great to meet you. I used to do cross-stitching too until my eyes decided it was time to stop. You're sure to find a wealth of inspiration for all sorts of crafts on here - some that you may not even have heard of.
Whatever you do - enjoy it.

Glad you've joined us.
Cross stitch is only the beginning! Beware the Dark Side (patchwork & quilting) and the vintage machines....you know you'll want to. Heh! heh!

Welcome
@Spencer
.
Some of the finest embroidery I ever saw was done by an 18st, toothless, scary looking, Glaswegian submariner! He was a teddy bear really and while his pals knit, he sewed. They had to pass the time somehow apparently!
Enjoy the forum...but don't listen to the Sirens...they lead you out of your comfort zone!!!!!

Welcome from another newbie
. Are you doing embroidery by hand or on a sewing machine?
By hand... at the moment
