Hi everyone, just discovered this site and hope to get as much feedback as
possible. I'm new to the site, but also reasonably new to the whole
needlecrafts scene. My sewing extends to basic mending/alterations and I've
tackled a little cross stitch kit which I really enjoyed, even though I ran
out of thread!! My New Year's Resolution is to learn to crochet. My
interests
basically run to anything that involves stitching, be it with thread or
yarn,
so I love sewing, all types of embroidery and needlework, knitting and
crochet. At some time in the future I'd like to get into quilting and
beading
too.I subscribe to various needlearts magazines including Piecework,
Stitch,
Interweave Crochet and Interweave Knits. If there's no needle involved I'd
direct my energies to baking.
I live in Chile(where needlecrafts are still seen as a woman's hobby!),
run my
own business and am married with 2 grown up step kids. They all love me
and I
love them, so that's kinda cool. Please write lots!!
Nigel

If worries can cure your sickness, prolong your life, or replace
happiness, then go ahead and worry! If they can't, why worry?

Enjoy every moment of your life...there is no second chance.
