Stitching really, honestly can make you better at everything else you do.

Bold claim, you say? Well, I’ve just come up with three ways that’s true, off the top of my head no less, so let me prove it.

  1. Laser-beam focus. Counted cross stitch takes your natural ability to focus down on a project and deepens it. Sharpens it. Stitching makes your ability to maintain focus in the midst of distractions more resilient. Consequently, if you believe your crazy modern lifestyle has impacted your ability to focus, then stitching is a pleasurable, relaxing, colorful way to revitalize it.
  2. Strut that sexy, self-confident strut! As counted cross stitchers, we know how to finish things. We know how to get shit done. We walk with more confidence, hold our heads up just a bit higher, and speak our points clearly and out loud. In other words, being able to know that you’ll finish what you start, no matter what it may be, is a confidence booster that is sexy as all get-out.
  3. In groups, you attract attention — and hold it. Counted cross stitchers are beautiful and charismatic when they’re talking about stitching. We love this art, this craft, this hobby, and whenever any of us talk about something we love, we light right up.  Moreover, many modern cross stitch designers cater to our pop culture, binge-watching, social media loving habits by offering charts based on our latest favorite series, movie, podcast, video game, and more! So, not only are you talking about stitching, which you love, but stitching topically, too! Sweet baby Yeebus, this stuff is so much better to take to the break room than your latest round of medical issues. Seriously.
