Love doing counted cross stitch...it's sort of Zen. Meditating on the X...pretty soon the bit becomes part of the whole. Neat, huh? And I don't have to think about anything while doing this....just the X. Not (
completely) mindless....almost never boring...and, like the steady, resonant sound of the hall clock's
pendulum....a great reliever of stress. If more people did cross stitch....there would be fewer wars. Just a great, smiling mass of humanity focused on......The X. At peace.

I love your blog! I agree that cross stitching is very much Zen for me too!
