Cross Stiches?

Cross Stiches?
Your ? is vague. Do you want to learn cross stitching, or do you want to buy cross stitching?
Reply:If you are looking for cross stitch kits, any craft store would have. If you are looking for completed ones...not sure.
Reply:Saying you want to buy cross stitches doesn't tell us anything, since that term can be used for the kit or the finished piece.





If you want to buy the kits to do your own cross stitch projects, go to a crafts supplies store like Michaels or Hobby Lobby or a specialty stitching store or the craft aisle in WalMart.





If you are looking to purchased finished items that are cross stitched, go to a craft fair or any local store that sells handcrafted items.
Reply:If you are just beginning/learning to cross stitch, you might look into the Dimension Daydreams kits. These contain detailed instructions, plus a mat and a frame with glass! The first one I did was "Tending the Garden;" it came out so well I was inspired to try another!





It says it could be a weekend project, but took me longer since it was the first cross-stitching I'd ever done. The frame really made a difference (immediate gratification). I believe I purchased the first one at Michael's (a hobby/crafts shop), but the second one I got online at joann.com (see link below).





Best wishes!
