Technically cross stich.

And gorgeous.

Starting at the age of 5, I learned every kind of needlework from different female relatives.

Instead of sending me to kindergarten, my mom taught me sew. My great-aunt actually had a knitting and crocheting school in Chicago! I was taught to tat!

I started young too! :-)

Mom and Nana taught me. There was a large Ukrainian population in my area and I fell in love with the embroidery. I made my wedding outfit, and it was done in that kind of motif.
