QOTD - How & When

How old were you when you first started stitching? How did you get interested?

I was around 13 or 14 - what got me started was my cousin was working for a magazine distributor and would get to keep the excess magazines when the mags came off the shelves. So she picked out the craft magazines for my Aunt who was very crafty, and then the magazines got passed onto my Mom and I.

I would look thru them, and some how I got started. And the rest is a hobby gone crazy!

In one of my Yahoo Groups, a QOTD (Question Of The Day) has been started. I thought that I would share my answers here also. :)
