Maggie, this is stunning. Sorry to hear about your arthritis. Despite your setback, it is nice to hear that you are so optimistic about your new hobby.
TFS!
Beautiful work. Very pretty colours. (I have problems with my hands too, and like you, I am glad I can still scrapbook. Using a needle would be out of the question for me now.)
Mag, this is lovely, some of it looks like satin stitch.....? Hey, I wanted to tell you, I was in a yarn store in Arkansas last week, I bought a therapeutic glove which fits tightly and provides support while crafting. It is actually made for crafting, to help people with arthritis etc continue their hobby. If you are interested i will give you the exact info. Jan
oh my gosh!! i use to cross stitch all the time--same thing--after awhile--my hands cramp--i so loved it though i never made anything as beautiful as this---just lovely!!
This is one of two cross-stitching pieces I made. For years I did counted cross-stitching. I loved it so much but because of osteoarthritis in my right hand (yes, I'm right handed) I can no longer make these small stitches without my hand cramping up after only a short while. I really miss this craft and hobby but now scrapping is my new favorite craft! I still have a hard time with my hand and the details in some of my LOs may take longer than normal, I can still scrap without too much trouble and for that I am extremely grateful!
