I am currently doing "several" cross stitch pieces. I also enjoy Crewel
work and needlepoint. I would consider myself a "Beginner". I enjoy doing
small projects which I can finish quickly such as eyeglass holder (cs),
baby cups and bibs. I am now involved in a Round Robin for beginners on
AOL and really looking forward to that!

Violet Stitches
I'm Violet and live in Rochester, MN. I started my own stitchy forum in hopes to meet other stitchers in my area, but there has been no interest. This is likely because there's no needlework shop withing 150 miles of here (boo hoo). If anyone ever wants to get together and stitch with me you can contact me on this forum, or go to the one I created. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/semns

Unfortunately driving to Minnetonka can take up to a 3 hours from here when the horrible traffic of Minneapolis is figured in. It's not a drive I can make with my particular disability. Possibly though, my husband might be convinced to take me there for my birthday in May. :)

You should be safe in between! I think I mentioned Stitchville here a
couple weeks ago--I'm in Burnsville.

was in Florida on vacation I stopped at my LNS there and my daughter picked
out a pretty beaded mermaid pattern. The shop did not have all the seed
beads I needed, so I guess I have an excuse to go!

We can only go up there on Saturdays as my husband works during the week, and the drive from Rochester to Mpls on weekends is excruciating no matter how you time it. It's been much worse in the last 5 years than it's ever been before...seriously, Hwy 52 is like 494 at rush hour the entire way. At one point there were discussions about putting in a high speed rail between our cities, but I believe there were cash flow problems on Rochester's end. Too bad, but perhaps the idea will resurrect at some point.
jinx the minx
and around Rochester still, so I'm driving 52 all the time. I always
thought the rail was a great idea so I hope it happens someday.
Stitchville moved locations some years ago. I'm not too fond of their new
location because it's in a busier part of the Cities and a little more
complicated to get to. It's definitely worth the trip though. Their
website is www.stitchville.com.

Who knows, maybe someday you'll find a reason to fly to our wonderful state of MN and get to see the shop for yourself. If so, I highly recommend you come in the SUMMER. As much as I adore stitching, I can't believe even Stitchville is worth suffering Minnesota's awful winter weather for. ;)
