  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Hi, all! I'm new to this website. I really enjoy embroidery. My step-mother-in-law got me hooked on it. She and I have done one set of nursery quilt blocks together. I'm currently working on a crib sheet(?) that has Noah's Ark on it. It's pretty cute. I also enjoy cross-stiching, but embrodiery's my passion right now. Best wishes!

I love embroidery too, but it has been a long time since I picked it up to do any. I used to be very good at it, and enjoyed the intrique designs that can be accomplished with this. I also do embroidery with yarn, too. Right now I am more into sewing and making things with all kinds of lacy trims.

I'm into making new curtains and drapes for my home, and also renewing the tired pillow covers that are on the throw pillows in the livingroom. I made those when we first moved here almost 15 years ago. They lasted through two kids, and 6 or 7 dogs and cats. ;)

Embroidery is fun, and I love to make my own designs.

One project was the tree skirt for the Christmas tree I made myself with sequins, and beads. If that counts :p ... but I love making pillows with embroidery on them too. Next, I may make some doll clothing with embroidery on them. I always keep scraps of materials from all my projects, and they usually end up on my dolls in my doll collection.
