I could spend a bunch on books...but I don't. I could spend a bunch on material...but I don't. Overall, cross-stitching is pretty cheap to do once you have basic starting supplies.
lol... yeah, it's great that it doesn't cost much... i've been cross stitching for about 10 years and it's the cheapest hobby i have... do you frame professionally?? usually i just grab a frame and stick the XS in there so it doesn't cost much at all... the pair i had done professionally was the exception to the rule... they are beautiful...
they're a matched set from Dimensions Gold collection, named the "mighty samurai" and "elegance of the orient" and DH and i love them... i attached the catalog photos so you guys could see since i don't have a better photo of mine...

sorry to be so off-topic everybody... this pair is pretty sentimental to me...
