My top three:
1. Hardanger
2. Counted Cross Stitch
3. Quilting

I don't know if there is anything I want to learn at the moment. I can
already crochet and knit...just not well. But that's ok because I don't
enjoy them much....although I do want to learn this whole machine knitting
thing.

My top three:

1. Counted cross stitch
2. Crochet
3. Hardanger

What I want to learn:

1. stumpwork
2. quilting
3. embroidery

I would like to venture back into making clothing, haven't drug the sewing
machine out in years. Needlepainting is beautiful, too. Wait...what's the
difference between needlepoint and embroidery? Is it that embroidery is the
stitching to embellish something say with a flower, and needlepoint is more of
stitching a picture? Gosh am I having a brain fart this morning or what? lol.
At any rate, inquiring minds want to know, and all that...

Rhonda: The term embroidery means any decorative stitching that
embellishes a ground of some sort. That ground can be fabric (plain or
knit, crocheted or net) or canvas. Needlepoint (aka tapestry) is
embroidery on canvas, and originally had certain stitches attached to
it. But modern canvas embroiderers are borrowing from other genres,
such as filet lace and reticella to make unique canvas art.

Embroidery - no matter on what ground - can be a "scenic picture", a
flower, or simply patterning (diamonds, holes, squares, damask
look-alikes as examples).

This thread is making me smile - because someting nifty is coming in
January and some of you will be delighted. It's about lots of different
kinds of needlework - all from masters of their craft. And that's all
you'll hear about it for now. grin
