Cant find time to stitch...

Hi... Posted everything within a day... Congrats to myself. Really wanted to start a blog on my Cross Stitch projects long long time ago... but I was pretty tight down with my Shop.

A brief recap... I started a Cross Stitch shop in mid 2007 in Kajang but decided to close it in May 2009. I cant cope after my Kakak left in April 2009. Actually I was struggling in mid 2008 when my mum was diagnose with cancer. My mum was the one backing me up taking care of my kids when I was working. (...thanks mum).

So with 3 young girls age 11, 7 & 4, a 2 1/2 storey semi-d and no backup system... its really tough having a full time business... really really not easy. So I decided to work from home. Beside taking care of my family & home... I get to work on my business too. Prefect plan but not materialising yet... still working on my website. Hope to get it up ASAP.

Once my website is up... hope I can sit back and relax a bit... and do some serious stitching. Really need to work on my WIP leh...

  2. Hi... Chiloe

    My mum recover pretty well. All the chemo & radiation is really bad but she was really determine to recover. My dad gave her the love & support to stay posotive.

    As for my business... Its not really easy to run a needlecraft business that only sell cross stitch items in Malaysia. Top with personal problem in end of 2008 make me realise its not really worth spending the time & effort stuck in a shop from 10.30am - 7pm (Mon - Sat). So in May this year, I decided to move everything back home... to cut cost & balance my role as mum & wife.

    Since June till now I am working on my stock count & website... Yup still working on my Cross Stitch Business but ONLINE now...

  3. hi

    I am really impressed with your work. I am a crazy cross stitcher too. Like you I recently set up a blog with all my finished projects & WIP, more to my own viewing but I am rather lazy in updating the blog.

    I am interested to learn from you more about cross stitching. Do drop me a line if you are ok.
