Cross-Stitch

When my mom came to visit about a month ago, she took me to buy supplies to cross-stitch.  When I was younger, I dabbled in cross-stitch, but I always found better things to do with my time.  Now that I am older, I find cross-stitching soothing and I like watching a piece of cloth turn into a work of art and I know I made it.  It is also something my mom and I can do while we are chit-chatting and something we can do together.

The first thing that I made was a bookmark.  Although the actual cross-stitching is done, I haven't cut it yet.  I really enjoyed doing it.  Now I need to look through the books I have and find something else to make.
