Ten things I like about cross-stitch

1. It's portable, easy to take out and put away.
2. It doesn't require long commitments at each sitting.
3. It's fun to see the design slowly develop.
4. It's methodical and all mapped out: one square=one stitch.
5. I love handling all of those different DMC colors.
6. There is a wide variety of designs available.
7. You don't need to be the most skilled sewer in the world.
8. Equipment needs are small.
9. It doesn't take a lot of space.
10. I can hand it off to my husband to finish (frame).
