Welcome to the site! It is a great place filled with kind and helpful people. I never venture much farther than crochet as far as crafting goes. Hope you enjoy it here We love seeing pics of projects so feel free to share.

Thankyou very much for the warm welcome I am at the moment doing a plastic canvas and crochet projesct for my bedroom wall...I love the victorian era so its along thosee lines and when I learn to share by photo when I am done with this craft I will surely upload it....at the same time I am making a door hanging for my bedroom door on the outside sorta like a dangling thing made of mini different colored mittens hang at different lengths....I hope I can get them all done before xmas lol love autumnlight

Ya it sounds like you've got your hands full with those projects. Good luck with the deadlines. I don't do so well with plastic canvas. Will your project cover the whole bedroom wall? If so that would be quite an undertaking. If you need help figuring out how to post pictures there are videos under the "need help" tab that will walk you through it.

Hi Lynn, As you can see by my name, I also am a Texas Transplant. I started out life in Ohio but left there when I was 18. And never went back to stay.I have been in Texas for the last 25 years so I guess you could say I am a Texan. I have really enjoyed "talking''"" with these sweet ladies in the year I have been on their list. Every one of them has made me feel welcome as I hope you will too. Where do you live here? I am 15 miles north of San Antonio On the I H 35 . I am Margaret, everyone here in the senior housing calls me Mickie. Another lady and I tried to start a crochet class but every one said they already knew how to crochet. Most of them learned when they were children. Take care, Huggs Margaret
