The beginning of embroidery

I remember I was in grade 3 when we started our cross-stitch sampler. My mom was ironing and I was sitting with her in the laundry room counting my stitches following my own design. I am sure I missed here and there some. I wished I would  still have my sampler  which was done in primary colours.


To refresh my memory how to start cross- stitching I took a class at the workroom and finished over the weekend my little sampler. The workroom offers over 100 shades of embroidery floss from Cosmo. It's a beautiful thread from Japan with a smooth, silky finish.





My next project will be a zipper pouch with embroidery to carry my project in progress with me.

  1. I think I may have been in grade 5 or 6 when I began my embroidery project. Love your finished project, can't wait to see your next one.
