Newbie here!

Hi! I'm Nancy from California. This is my first time joining a newsgroup,
but I've heard some wonderful things about this one, so I decided to join
up!

I have been cross stitching for 18 years and crocheting for 30.

I just won a blue ribbon first place on my Celtic Christmas at the fair. I
turned it into a Christmas stocking for my daughter (minus the outer frame
stitching and made up her name instead of Noel).

Thank you for letting me intro!

What an imaginative way to use Celtic Christmas, Nancy! I would never
have thought of that, but now that I've read your post, I can see it.
Congrats on the ribbon, too.

Welcome! It's a rowdy bunch at times, but very helpful and friendly
most of the time. Occasionally things might get a bit heated, but
usually it blows over in a day or so. Have fun!

Hi, Nancy! Do you have a picture posted of your Celtic Christmas? I'd
love to see it.

Oooh, I love "non stocking" stockings. It's fun to find just the right
holiday design and make a stocking from it. I've done "Santa Sacks"
for my kids, rather than the traditional stocking shape.

Hi Nancy - nice to see another "newbie" within 24 hours of Kate joining us!

We`re certainly a LIVELY group, so hope you`ll enjoy it.

Congratulations! If you need it hand-delivered or hand-retrieved from
the State Fair, just let me know. (I know at one point they were
requiring that for display of needlework; not sure what the current
rules are.)

Thank you all so much. I had done Celtic Spring for my dd's 8th bday 4
years ago and she just couldn't decide on a stocking that she wanted. She
saw CNoel and fell in love! I will be taking pics and will share this
weekend (I'm going to fair on Sat).

I don't know if I'll be entering it in State Fair. I guess I could. I
never thought of doing that. Hmmm....now you have my brain cells going. :0)

p.s. KarenC...where in CA are you?

"NancyB" had some very interesting things to
say about Newbie here!:

What part of California? There are regulars here all over the state
(Karen C. and I both live in Sacramento, and there's someone from Elk
Grove, which is right near there).
