I am a 2,
both drawing and stitching.
I saw this first in a Cross Stitch FB Group
where I am a member:
Where apparently I am odd because I actually draw and stitch both the same way.
Apparently I am also "scary" and a "freak" according to many of the comments
on the original Twitter Post.
Do I care?
Not at all.
I am not social media person or follow trends.
Nor do I usually watch the Today Show.
If you are interested in more on this X story google it or
... where someone actually says
"I don't know anyone who starts from the bottom."
Hmmm .... I do.
This guy does not know me.
My hubby, who more typical when it comes to drawing x's,
suggests maybe it is so I can see my work.
This makes sense to me.
My hubby knows me ... <3
I do care more about the fact I am not getting my
accomplished.
If you compare photos from these two posts
you will see I have not been cross stitching.
I was going to stitch during the football games on Sunday,
but the games were so interesting
and kept my attention focused on the play.
I have been sewing.
Maybe I do not care enough not to play with
my sewing machine .
Either way I am happy and stitching in my happy place.
Hope you are warm and safe and happy
crossing your x's.
I'm a 2 when I cross stitch. I draw more like a 7, I think. It's hard to think about it seriously when you don't draw much. I definitely write like a 7. That's the reason I say a 7. I always cross stitch like 2 - no doubt about that! I'd hate for someone to have started a project with a different approach and ask me to finish it for them. It would drive me insane to try to change my stitching. I started cross stitching at a fairly young age so it's really engrained in me to do my stitches in that way. Thanks for posting this article.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what the average person does. I draw more like a 6. Cross-stitching is a 2 .. What's average? I've never been average nor do I follow a trend. I yam what I yam .. Popeye said that. At 81, I'm okay with who I am and what I do!! Back to playing with MY sewing machine. Thank you for an interesting blog!!
ReplyDeleteI think I'm a 7. My first answer in my head was 7, but then when I started really thinking about it I confused myself! (Easily done!!!) I didn't follow the link. I probably will later, my curiosity is getting the best of me!
