I was very late with cross-stitching, I started at the age of 29, a collegue of my work did it and she learned me how to stitch, my begin project was a smellbag, later I made bigger projects..

I was about that age too.  Had a few breaks over the years but always come back to stitching - fabulous stress relief!

I was around eight years old. The grandmother bought small kits for my sisters and me. 2 of the 3 of us took to it. Ive done it on and off for years. The last 7 have been "on" years

I started in college, then took a 20+ year hiatus for other crafts, and now back to cross stitching.
