Hi All
I wanted to take a moment and introduce myself to everybody. My name is Karin Bokhorst and I live Roodepoort in the sunny South Africa. I have been stitching for approximately five years on and off. I love stitching on Aida and similar fabrics, I love a variety of designers and also get a lot of patterns from the web.
I have recently started a blog: http://karokrafts.blogspot.com/
I am still very new at this, all comments welcome.
I am looking forward to getting to know you and exchanging little treasures with everybody.
Happy stitching,
Karin

Like so many I love cross stitch & enjoy exchanging items I have stitched. How much more fun is it to get wonderful stitchy surprises in the mail than bills? Since many of the groups and blogs I have encountered are full, I decided to start one!! So I hope we end up with some great new friends here and can have lots of fun! If you are interested, contact Yoyo at yoyo_9203 at yahoo dot com (temporarily until Marie is available).
