Terri likes cross-stitch. Since the children all she's done is buy the magazines, but before that she was always doing them. She always had half a dozen on the go at a time - I could never understand why she didn't just do one until it was finished, but she said she liked a change when she got bored. I used to rib her about the one with fruit in a bowl and the caption 'Life is just a bowl'

It is quite frightening how many hours it takes to make even a small one.

It is one more thing she will do 'when Harry goes to school', along with mosaicing a table, learning French, teaching English, opening a B&B and ice-cream parlor and cooking me an adequete supply of pies and cakes.

I think we need a campaign to get Terri on here Do many people here make up their own designs? I am working on a bookmark for a friend's baby and want to decorate it with bumblebees but am not happy with the patterns I have in the library books I borrowed. But not being very artistic I'm not sure I would do it very nicely, any ideas?
