Cross stitch is one of my favourite past time. Now for sometime I have put my projects on hold due to work. I must put a few pictures of my work on the blog so you can have a look at it. I have stitched many cushion covers, wall hangings which adorn the walls in my house. I am thinking of doing this on a commercial basis in the near future, starting with some wall hangings, bags and table runners etc. First, I must collect some specimens. Any ideas are welcome.

Recently I got some Arabic cross stitch patterns. I have finished one and started on another.

My first blog post

I am a WAHM (Work At Home Mom) doing medical transcription. I do a little not much, to earn some money which is very useful these days, what with the cost of living sky rocketing. There are so many ways to make money at home by starting some small businesses like making yoghurt on a small scale which can be sold to neighbours and friends at a price which is a few bucks less than that is available in the market. Soap and candle making too is a good idea. These can be sold at a church feast and any festival sales. There are so many products which can be homemade and marketed among friends and neighbours which can bring in an income to help us these days.

I love cross stitch which has been a hobby of mine for the last 20 years. I started this to pass my time while the children are at school. (By the way I have 2 kids) It once became an addiction with me. That was the time I stitched any patterns that I could lay my hands on. Now with the advent of the internet I can surf and am able to get many patterns from various sites. Thanks to cross stitch fans all over the world the cross stitch world too have become small.

I love cooking and plastic canvas stitching too which I will write about another day.
