hey everyone,come to see my handicraft

That is a super little bear, and I'm sure you must be very proud of your sister, and think of her every time you use your cellphone :-) Well, I learned embroidery and cross-stitch (the British name for cross-sewing) when I was young -this wasn't surprising though, as my mother used to sew a lot, and insisted that I should learn.) - I've made little cushions, and once had a big cross-stitch project which I nearly finished, but I ran out of thread for two of the colours. In the UK, you can buy cross-stitch kits, which contain all the threads, a piece of fabric with markings, and a paper pattern with different symbols for different colours, so you know where to sew which colour. This was one of these, but you can make your own designs on a piece of squared paper. Handicraft can be a fun hobby, and there's a sense of achievement when you complete your project! Of course - like your sister did with that bear, you can make gifts for your friends, and it's more personal and nicer than something bought from the shops, because they've put effort and thought into it. I'm sure you could learn cross-stitch if you wanted to - it just takes practice (like most skills), and you just have to remember to always make the crosses in the same direction (one side always underneath, and the other one always on top - I hope I explained that clearly - it's easier to show someone how to do a stitch than explain it in words), and try to keep them the same size. But if sewing isn't for you but you want to do handicrafts, there are other ones you could try, like silk-painting, or making jewellry, or knitting. All the best to you and your sister - she's done very well, and I'm very impressed by her skill!!

Yes,it's cute.I'd have loved to see a red bear.I guess there aren't any , but I have seen red pandas.We don't have any in our parts though.So,if I learn knitting,the first thing I'd bring to life would be a cuddly red bear. :-)

Wow, the little bear shown in the image is really cute and attractive! At first I thought it is your master piece as you had started a discussion about learning how to make handicraft by using used stuffs. Yeah, from its neat and refined sewing, the matching of the colors with various tones, the sweet and cute appearance of the little bear we could really see how complicated the work was and how much time was needed to accomplish this little bear. So you must cherish and take care of it all the time. Her effort also shows the close and intimate relationship between you and your beloved sister. I had made spinning top (tuo luo) from the wood of guava tree and a long iron nail many years ago for my son. Making handicraft is really a good hobby during our leisure and it’s also a good exercise for training our hands to be more skillful. Other than that we could make some profits by selling them.

Its looking very cute.My mom knows cross stiching but nowdays she doesnt do it due to poor eyesight.I dont know how to do this but iam very much interested in making hand made craft items.i have lot of collections in my show case. i love making stokinett flowers, stiching using woollen thread in plastic mats as wall hangers, embroidery, fabric painting in clothes, flower baskets using a special wire availble in variety of colours and lots more.I think its an art and need lot of creative sense to do craft items. your sister is very good at it so encourage her hobby as my parents supported me way from my childhood.

Wow, your sister's handicraft is so lovely. I like making handicraft, too. However, I am not so good at it. You are lucky to have such a nice sister:) My mom does it well and she made some nice stitch works at our home.

Really lovely bear. I think I cannt do that I even cannt do a needlework,but I used make a smart alarm clock.A disk and a broken alarm clock. The most thing I make is PCB(Printed Circuit Board).I make one every term. I also make a lot of robots when I was a child.I made them by mud

Oh that is so cute, I used to do cross stitch sewing, I remember cross stitching a big ginger cat on to a white t shirt, it took me months and when I washed it all the orange dye came out all over the shirt I was furious...I have been into many crafts but I gave them all up when I got my computer...

It is absolutely adorable, great job. What an accomplishment?

oh friend,yes,it is so cute.lol...my girl friend also would like to make this ,which named cross stitch.it is very popular in our country,right?

Hi! that was so cute,what more? you know it was specially made by your sister..I do not know if there is already a cross sewing here in the Philippines. I would love to be in a handicraft too..maybe when I am not busy and have lots of spare time.

What a cute bear!your sister is good at it,i have ever made some butterfly specimens for my good friends,and i'm so happy they seemed to like them so much.

in my memory ,on my teenager i made some paper folding stuff sometimes .that's my handicraft, it's so ridiculous!
