My Hobbies

Welcome to my hobbies page. My main hobby is counted cross stitch. I have dabbled a little in quilting, but have waaaay more to learn. I have never put a quilt together, but have had a hand in the quilting (finishing) of one. You can see the one quilt I helped to finish on page two. I hope to learn more about how to quilt. I have so many cross stitch projects planned that I may never learn anything else! LOL I hope to eventually make a page just for the quilts, when I get pics taken of all of them.

"My Feet" finished June 2006, and companion piece "Handprints" finished May 2006.
