Welcome to my gallery dedicated to Counted Cross Stitch and other embroidery techniques. This site contains digital images of all of my completed projects as well as links to several of my favorite cross stitch sites.

Stitching projects are divided in accordance to the year in which the stitching was complete (even if the finishing wasn't completed until a later year). The current year may also include some projects that are in progress.

The most well known of the American cross stitch magazines. This magazine is devoted almost exclusively to projects (and the requisite advertisements).

The most well known of the British cross stitch magazines. There is no relation to the American magazine listed above. About half the space is dedicated to projects, while the remainder is dedicated to letters, articles, and reviews. Perhaps that's why they can publish monthly, instead of the bi-monthly usual for American magazines.

If you ever saw an issue of this magazine, you'll see that it's a bit misleading. Yes, most of the projects are cross stitch, but its also includes some other techniques, such as hardanger. This magazine does not include pieces suitable for beginners.

As far as I know, this is the largest shop in the state of Maryland.

This shop is a bit of a drive, but they hold most of their classes and special activities on Sundays, which fits well with my schedule.

This is the closest good shop to where I live and is the only one that's to my west. They keep quite a collection of Sudberry House products. Barb keeps an excellent reference (Barb's Index) of shops, charts, and anything else that's related to stitching.

This is the only major shop in the region that is open to the public every Sunday.

This is the companion web page for the Rec.Crafts.Textiles.Needlework newgroup. If you are looking for information on Counted Cross Stitch, this is a good place to start.

The Embroiders' Guild of America (or EGA) is an organization decicated to the advancement of the needlearts in the United States. For more information about EGA and any chapters that may be in your area, visit their web site.

The Creative Arts & Textiles Shows (CATS) started two years. They tend to cover a wider range of embroidery techniques than HOCS.
