I am 65 years young and have been stitching for about 3 years. I have completed several pieces with over 60,000 stitches each, and countless small ones. When someone raises there eyebrows because I am a guy doing it, I tell them they better not laugh at Rosie Greer, (American pro football player), because he told a national audience how he loves doing it. I have about 20 large pieces to do before I croak. Most take 600- 1400 hours to complete. I keep track of the time and also take pictures as I progress. Show your stuff with pride, there are a lot of women who could not do what we do.

Check out The Silver Lining. Marc designs fabulous flowers and a bit more.

Also, on 123stitch.com, Rowland, in England, is starting to design. You might want to put out an FAO to him.

Crossstitchpatterngallery.com was started by a husband and wife team. Sadly, the husband is no longer with us.





All things considedered, I'd rather be on a cruise ship.

My name is Frank my Wife Cindy taught me to stitch twenty years ago. She has since given it up but I love doing it every evening. I love making my own patterns.
