Creating a blog is something I have meant to do for at least a year, and for one reason or another, just never did it. Well, today I decided there was no better time than the present. My hope for this blog is to keep others up-to-date with new designs, projects I’m working on, a little of my personal life, and a place for journaling some of my thoughts.
First of all, a brief introduction. I’ve been cross stitching for over 20 years, and designing for 4 years (but only officially published for 1 1/2 years). I’m married, and have a 3 year old son.
For 20 years, cross stitching has been my only “crafty” hobby, but this past year I’ve added crochet, punchneedle, and scrapbooking to the list. I’ve found that each additional hobby inspires my creativity for cross stitch design.


Olive?? Remember me? Well, welcome to the blogging world. I hope to see some of your artistic creations in the near future!
Yay! Welcome to the blogging world
News travels fast…I’d only told Tracy so far! I’ll try posting more in the next few days…maybe even some pics…
Great to see you blogging, Olive. I’ll be stopping back soon; I like your “Be Merry”.
Hello and welcome to blogging.
I’m also beginning to explore publish my own cross stitch designs.
I am excited to find someone else that may have advice for me.
