    I like cross stitching. I also want to learn how to knit, seems like a practical thing to do.

    Ha, I use to do cross stitching when I was like 10.

    The second most embarrassing thing I will admit to. The most being male figure skating. I won a second place ribbon at a competition once.

    A friend of mine figure skates and he's done a few competitions. He loves it.

    That is really cute, Mad!

    Anyone tips for wanting to knit, but finding it HORRIBLY boring and stopping short in the middle?

    Anyway, so I could knit before, but didn't know the inside-out sort of things... So I bought Knitting for Dummies. Great, great, great. Only, I get bored...

    I just sewed a curtain for my door this winter, to keep the warmth in. And I was making a cover for the potato-onion basket, but my black thread is nearly finished. (why don't I actually use other colour instead?)

    I like cross-stitching. really pretty. I did actually finish something my mother gave me when I was about 13 (we had to stay in the exam room for two hours, even if we had finished and reading I didn't like (too much of it, studying and doing exams ) and so I did embroidery). Anyway, so I am now 28, that makes 13 years!! On a shoe with little mice in it... I guess it's for the children's room now (in the near future) .

    Ya, but now I'm old and fat.

    I was never crazy about it either, my mother forced me into it.

    Madhuri, that is superb for a first-attempt! Looks like a mobile phone cover; what's it for?
